The work was done, the final bill came out to about $1600, and we now have a hot water heater. We then did some research (yes, we should have done it before, but the timing was tight, and we just wanted hot water), and discovered that a new 30 gallon hot water heater generally runs $300 - $500.
What is a 'Roth IRA'. A Roth IRA is an individual retirement plan that bears many similarities to the traditional IRA, but the contributions are not tax deductible and qualified distributions are tax free.
A Roth Individual Retirement Account is an after-tax investment vehicle for retirement focused investing. Withdrawals from Roth IRAs are not taxed. Funds held in a Roth IRA can be invested in numerous different types of securities, funds, and more through various account providers. A Roth IRA conversion is a rollover from another account type (typically a 401k or Traditional IRA) into a Roth IRA account.
