[-]You still could have done backdoor Roths, for you and your spouse. (Just mentioning this for anyone who may still be in that situation). When doing a backdoor, you're using money that you've already HAD to pay tax on, so at that point the only question is "Do I want this to grow tax-free, or do I want it in a taxable account"? The math is pretty easy on that one. Wish I'd learned about backdoors earlier!
You'll have to show me the easy math. If I'm in a high tax bracket while working, and expect to be in a lower bracket in retirement, how does the math work out to be better to pay taxes on the conversion at the higher rate?[/-]
Never mind, I was mistaken, see the next 3 posts.
