QUESTION 1:

I have a question about Roth options. We live in California. At my work they are giving a Roth 457b. Our household income is $300,000 – $350,000. Which would be a better option, Roth or pretax 457b?  We live in California and pay state tax of 10-11%.

QUESTION 2:

I’m looking into starting a new job soon. My understanding is there is a 1 year ‘vesting time’ before I can contribute. If I start in 2019, would I have to wait until 2020 to contribute?

QUESTION 3:

Could you please explain a suggested portfolio for your “Backdoor Roth”?
