Uh, yeah, but only if you are willing to pay much more in taxes upfront.themicah wrote:If you are somebody who maxes out your 401k and IRA contributions, then another advantage of the Roth 401k is that it allows you to effectively put more in tax-advantaged accounts, since $17,500 of after-tax money is worth more than $17,500 of pre-tax money.
If you don't have that extra amount in your budget, then in reality you may not be able to put $17,500 in a Roth, even if you can afford to make a deductible 401k contribution.
