Question by momo: What’s the 2008 contribution limit for Roth 401k and Roth IRA combined?
Like the question asks what is the combined total limit for the Roth 401k and the Roth IRA? I’ve read too much conflicting information that you can contribute the full 5k in the Roth IRA and 14k in the Roth 401K? Then I’ve checked with financial advisors and they indicate otherswise. Hm, please CITE sources with your response, need accurate information.

Lastly, if anyone know what the combined limit between the Roth401k, Roth IRA and the traditional 401k also list it as well.

Thanks!
Can Icontribute to all three: Roth 401k, 401k and the Roth IRA?

I know you can do the last two but what about all three?

I am of course referring to just partial amounts so I don’t exceed the 15k annual limit and the as far as I know the 5k limit for the Roth IRA is considered separate. Thanks!
Forgot to mention within the Roth IRA AGI limits and under the age of 50.

The 401K roth is simply another 401K choice. If the limit is $ 15,000, then if you put $ 10,000 into the ROTH 401K, you only have a potential $ 5,000 for the regular 401K.

Since a regular 401K doesn’t prevent one from contributing to a ROTH IRA, a ROTH 401K won’t prevent one either.

My husband and I contribute to all of those in my question, but I’m not sure what the max is we can contribute all together.

Will it help cash flow or taxes later on? Should I convert now when value is lower? Does it matter? Taxes consequences? Limits to converting?

Is it possible to take a loan from your 401k with out having to pay taxes on it till 2010 taxes.

We recently got a new 401K and need to decide our allocation mix between large caps, foreign and bonds. Not sure if I should take the current economic situation into consideration or just stay the course. Thanks!
