Should you invest in a standard brokerage account or a tax-advantaged retirement account? This calculator shows the impact of taxes on your long-term returns.
Tax-deferred accounts like 401(k)s and Traditional IRAs allow your investments to grow without being taxed annually. This means you can reinvest what would have been paid in taxes, leading to faster compounding.
While you'll eventually pay taxes when you withdraw the money in retirement, the benefit of tax-free growth over several decades is often substantial compared to a standard taxable account.
