Last year, I rolled all of my investments from the 401K plans of previous employers into a mutual fund IRA rollover account. I have recently been considering putting that money into a Roth IRA. I would not be contributing regularly to the Roth IRA, were I to do it.

What are the advantages and/or disadvantages of doing this? Is my money as likely to grow as it would in a mutual fund investment? What are the tax issues involved with such a move?
