Roth vs Vanguard for 401K

Huh? These aren’t mutually exclusive things

I think you're a bit confused. Here's something I posted a while ago: "I think a lot of the confusion is coming from the terminology. There are two investment vehicles: 401k (max contribution $18.5k) and IRA (max $5.5). Each of these come in two flavors: Traditional (using pre-tax funds) and Roth (use post tax). For some reason people mistakenly refer to an IRA as a "Roth". A Backdoor Roth IRA is depositing post-tax funds in a Traditional IRA (because you are over the income limit to deposit in a Roth IRA) and then converting that to a Roth IRA, effectively bypassing the income limit." To supplement, Vanguard is a company. They provide access to and manage 401ks and IRAs. In essence you have asked "I am maxing my savings account, which is better between a checking account and Bank of America?"

I like vanguard and how they manage their 401k’s... super low fees so that’s good 👍🏽
