"It's time to stir things up at the office. Thanks to the new pension law, Roth 401(k) plans are no longer slated to disappear in 2011 -- and that means a lot more companies will consider offering these plans. Want a shot at tax-free investment growth? Here's why you should phone up human resources and put in a request for the Roth 401(k)."
A very good arguement by Jonathan Clements on why a Roth 401(k) is a good idea - it basically forces you to save more than you normally would, and on a tax free basis. I think this will be a rising trend. I do like a Roth IRA better than the Roth 401(k), however some people don't qualify for the Roth IRA, or simply will never start one - while they might with their employer.
