What are the differences between a Simple IRA and a Traditional IRA? A traditional IRA is set up by an individual on his or her own behalf to save for retirement, whereas a SIMPLE IRA is set up by a small business owner on behalf of an employee (including the owner if he or she is a sole proprietor).
A Roth IRA has many rules that are similar to a traditional IRA. The main difference between a traditional IRA and Roth IRA is that Roth IRA contributions are made with after tax dollars but all distributions including capital gains, are tax-free when you withdraw them (post age 59 Â½).
