I'm considering rolling over some of my traditional 401k to a Roth IRA and then immediately taking out the money from the Roth IRA (I'm not yet age 59.5). (I'm aware of the long-term investment implications for retirement).
- When I rollover to the Roth IRA, do I pay taxes but no 10% penalty, i.e. is the rollover considered a contribution, and thus when I withdraw from the Roth IRA I'm withdrawing only contributions since there are no earnings in the day or two the money sits in the Roth IRA?
- Can I rollover more than the 00 a year limit on Roth IRA contributions?
- Is there any difference between rolling over from a traditional
Thanks.
