Cherry Picking The Diamonds From The Stock Market

if im picking my own stocks or mutual funds why is a roth ira better?

as opposed to say an individual brokerage acct? im having a hard time understanding why one would choose a roth ira when you can get a brokerage acct that you can access penalty free? sorry for my stupidity if this dont make sense….:)

Taxfree growth in retirement. Also Chosen One…you can always take out the contributions in a ROth without penalty or tax. Just make sure to leave the growth in.
