Roth vs Traditional 401(k) Comparison

See whether a Roth or Traditional 401(k) leaves more money in your pocket at retirement.

Roth (after-tax, tax-free at withdrawal)

$1,700,294

Final account value $1,700,294. No tax owed on withdrawal if rules are met.

Traditional (pre-tax, taxed at withdrawal)

$1,475,395

Final value $1,700,294, taxed at withdrawal $255,044, plus tax saved today compounded at 7%.

Verdict — Traditional

Your expected retirement bracket is meaningfully lower than today's — the front-end tax break dominates.

Tax saved today

$118,800

Difference (Roth − Traditional)

$224,900

Compounding years

30

These ignore contribution-limit differences (Roth has income limits; 401(k) match is only available pre-tax), early-withdrawal penalties, and state tax. Most planners recommend a mix when future rates are uncertain.
