4 Choices for a Former Employers' 401(k) Hi Linda, I would like your opinion on the following; my wife is beginning a new chapter in her career and starting a new job after 11 years.  She has a 401k with a significant amount of funds and now we have to make the decision on what to do?  The one decision that has been made is that we will not withdraw any money from the account, but we are not sure what our best option is: 1 Keep it as is within her old company’s 401k plan? I am not a fan and I know that we could incur administration fees plus we have a limited investment selection. 2 Rollover into her new company’s retirement plan? My reservation with this option is again having limited investment options. 3 Fidelity has a 401k rollover IRA plan that allows us to have full control of our investments (funds, stocks, etc.). I like this option but I know you are fan of ROTH IRAs better, but if we try to convert from a 401k to a ROTH IRA—would we get taxed? We believe the best option is #3 but I value your opinion
