Right now, people are choosing the new type of IRA, the Roth IRA, over the traditional IRA account for investing their money when they are retired. Knowing this fact, I begin to question myself about why Roth IRA is very interesting for a lot of people. Motivated by this fact, I begin to search a lot of websites in the internet asking one person to another person to find the answer of the question. Finally after reading so many resources from the internet and from the answer that I got from people I have asked, this is the thing that makes people love choosing the Roth IRA over the traditional IRA.

Tax is the main and important reason why there are now so many people choose to use the Roth IRA instead of using the old traditional IRA which has been known for decades to help people who want to be safe when they are retired from work. If you are using the traditional IRA, you need to pay some taxes to withdraw the money that you have saved which means, the money that you have saved will be reduced by the tax. This is what makes people unhappy about using the traditional IRA. But if you are using the Roth IRA, you do not have to pay the tax when you are withdrawing the money. This is because the taxes have already been paid when you are saving the money. So, for example, if you are saving $5000, that amount will be reduced by the taxes. Thus, you do not have to pay another tax when withdrawing the money.
