Roth IRAs can grow tax-free. So, if you think you’re going to be in a higher tax bracket when you’re 59 ½, changing things over to a Roth IRAs may be best.

Education IRA

An Education IRA is a good idea if you want to save up for your child’s college expenses. You can save up to $2,000 per child and withdrawals are tax-free when used for their education costs. But, contributions are not tax-deductible.
