First time trying to use and redeem my Hertz points. I'm trying to book a large premium car that I need for the space but it only allows me about a $30 discount. Is that normal?

Then you probably don't have enough points?

You can’t. The hertz rewards point only let you book the basic booking. All the premium upgrades cost additionally

You still need to pay taxes, it'll never be completely free

Yeah, but I can't even use points to cover the entire reservation cost

Great, thanks for clarifying

Pretty sure you can book premium/speciality, it just costs more. At the checkout page, you should see something like this screenshot for a 7 people SUV. If you can't select premium car type it may be because the location is sold out or because they expect it to sell out (capacity control similar to airlines awards) so you have to book as early as possible and try different locations. If you're booking at an airport location and have president circle or Platinum, you can play your luck and just book full size then see if the president aisle has a large SUV or ask for it there.

See below

Yeah so all I'm given are those discount options. I don't see any options for a free rental day or anything

Turns out they just didn't have any special rates for premium cars at my location. I have more points than what's listed there in a1s picture

I’ve seen a couple posts lately with comments saying that people should not use a Roth 401k. Does the logic below capture the spirit of that concept?
1. Use trad. 401k to reduce taxable income now. Convert to trad. IRA once retired, then convert gradually to Roth IRA (ladder, SEPP, etc.) at lowest marginal tax rate
2. Use Roth IRA (and/or backdoor Roth) to take advantage of tax free growth and ability to withdraw principal early without penalty
