I have a side gig doing some consulting work (I’m no longer in public accounting). Can anyone share tips or resources I can read on how to maximize this income, such as reducing taxable income, different investment options, etc?

Hello, first post here. Outside sales, merchant services/card processing. I’m primarily a welder but I work 4 10-hour shifts typically then I try sales the last three days. I’ve done it long enough to where I’m confident and comfortable going to new businesses, establishing some rapport with business owners. But it seems like a lot of businesses see this as a waste of time, even adding services and cutting costs. I guess either I’m looking for advice or considering not doing this anymore.

I’ll preface with I’m new at this and learning. But I’m researching if I should do an IRA or back door Roth IRA. And maybe I don’t fully understand how taxes work but what is the benefit of a Roth?

Wouldn’t I pay far less taxes (thus inadvertently getting more money) with a traditional Ira since me being retired would put me in a lower tax bracket than me well along in my career?
