Your contributions to a traditional IRA can result in reduced Federal and State Tax payments as well as providing tax-deferred growth. Long-term savings in a Roth IRA typically provide better after-tax returns but a traditional IRA is superb alternative if you qualify for the associated non-refundadable tax credits and tax deductions.

The Traditional IRA Calculator allows you to review how your retirement investments could perform over time. You may also like to try our Retirement Savings Comparison - ROTH and IRA calculator and / or the standalone ROTH IRA Calculator.
