I’m a 52F planning to retire at 70 so I can take the maximum social security when it’s time.
Since I’m in the 22% tax bracket, I want to make sure that I’m mitigating my tax risk. Currently, my retirement contributions are as follows:
15% into a traditional 401(k), employer matches 50% of 4.25% and also contributes a lump sum of 3% each year. Amounts of matching and lump sum go up to 6% and 5% respectively in two years (pre-tax). Current balance: 99k
Max (roughly 7% of gross pay) into a Roth IRA, including catch-up contribution. Current balance: 16k
Max into HSA to start building investments for medical costs in retirement: current investment account balance: $1550, cash balance of $3k to cover maximum out of pocket expenses for the year
I also have access to a Roth 401(k) via my employer and have a current balance in that one of about $30k, since that’s how I started on my retirement contributions with my current employer when I started working there.
I became a lot more aggressive with my savings a few years ago, so that I can catch up and be ready when I’m 70.
So does this look reasonable to keep my tax bill reasonable both now and when I retire?
