My new employer offers the option of a Roth 403(b). This is great in terms of my US tax obligation, because I live/work overseas and most of my income is therefore not subject to US income tax due to the foreign earned income exclusion. However, I am going to have to pay income tax in my country of residence on the salary that my employer declares to them. I believe the difference is going to be about US$315/month in local tax owed. I'm thinking this is a small price to pay for the potential of unlimited tax-free growth in the Roth, but wanted to check in with you folks here and see if there were alternative opinions. What do you think? Roth or no Roth?
