Roth IRAs and 401(k)s: Simple Retirement Accounts for Women

from She Means Money

Confused by Roth IRAs and 401(k)s? Host Maya Collins breaks down the two retirement accounts every woman should know: how pre-tax and tax-free growth work, why the employer match is free money you can't afford to leave behind, and the simple order to fund them in — 401(k) up to the match, then a Roth IRA, then more to the 401(k). Includes the 2026 contribution limits, a target-date-fund tip, and a two-minute action step to start this week.
