I ask about what they don’t like about the job/team/firm. It lets me see if they’re introspective or observant enough to see what they need improvement on. If someone says that literally everything is good I’m going to be pretty skeptical

Many thanks.

Hi all, I have a question regarding retirement accounts. I am not sure if I should choose a Roth or 401k (company has 4+2% match). Currently 23, base salary is ~100k and investments have brought 45k this year which has me teetering between a 22-24% tax bracket. Wondering what the usual tax bracket is of people retired (around 65yo) as I’m not sure anything would bring in significant income with the exception of investments. In my case would a Roth make sense? Appreciate any answers!!
