Benefits of Mega Backdoor Roth IRA Conversions with Solo 401(k)

Mega backdoor Roth IRA conversions offer significant advantages for those with QBI income, allowing a 20% deduction on Roth contributions compared to tax-deferred options. By setting up a solo 401(k) for a side gig with $10,000/year income, one can make After-Tax Employee Contributions and convert them to a Roth 401(k), maximizing growth in a Roth account. Despite the setup costs, the tax benefits over 30 years make this option valuable.
