Roth conversions are one of the most talked-about strategies in retirement planning right now—but that doesn’t mean they’re always a good idea. Today, I’m breaking down why blindly converting just because it’s popular online can actually cost you a lot of money. At the end of the day, a Roth conversion is simply **prepaying taxes**, and it only makes sense if you’re paying those taxes at a lower rate today than you would in the future. I’ll explain why doing conversions during your highest earning years can backfire, how the way you pay those taxes impacts your long-term growth, and why a more precise, patient strategy usually works better than a one-size-fits-all approach.
