Video Overview
A 57-year-old viewer reports about $170,000 in a Roth 401(k), $100,000 in a Roth IRA, $710,000 in a traditional 401(k), $280,000 in a traditional IRA, and roughly $740,000 in brokerage assets, with retirement expected in five to six years. The viewer asks what counts as investable liquid assets and how to handle the 401(k) after leaving work. The speaker views the Roth share as low and suggests annual conversions of about $120,000–$130,000 over the 18 years before age 75. Eligibility, tax brackets, RMD rules, and actual tax costs require account-specific review.

- The 57-year-old reports Roth, traditional retirement, and brokerage assets and expects to retire in five to six years.
