Max out both of you are able to. Bare minimum do the company match of course. I’ve just always maxed out both

My suggestion is to max your 401k to the extent allowed. Do your own research on if Roth or Traditional is best for you. Then max a personal IRA each year as well. You will get differing opinions on this topic but my diligence and having 600k in retirement at 35 has received nothing but great praises from financial planners.

I’d max out traditional and then contribute to a Roth IRA 🤷🏼‍♀️

Roth vs traditional depends on your tax bracket now and your age. Longer you hold the Roth the better, so younger you are the more you should be putting in there
