You don’t think they are going to tax coming and going?
Otherwise the Roth sounds attractive.
First chance they can, if they think they can get away with it.
There’s no downside for someone starting out with zero money opening a Roth.
But, someone who has a sizable sum in a traditional IRA - thinking about switching over to a Roth (to take advantage of the tax benefits) should probably worry about the goons in D.C. changing the tax-rules on the Roths, like the earlier poster said.
