Hi everyone,
I’m reading “The Simple Path to Wealth” by JL Collins and am hung up on the idea of a traditional IRA. I am already maxing out my 401k and I make above the income limit for any deduction that would be available for a deductible IRA. What is the point then in having an IRA instead of just investing the money in stocks? In my mind I get more liquidity in just directly investing in the stock market so not sure what I’m missing?
Thank you!
