BigBeautifulBill and taxes on 401k

By Terry Savage on September 16, 2025 | Financial Planning / Retirement

I am thinking I should convert some of our 401K to a Roth before year end so we can take advantage of a higher income > $220K and get a bigger tax cut of $13,200 instead of doing nothing. Is true that people who earn less then $220K will only get benefit from BBB of $1730. While those making > $220K will get a tax benefit of $13,200 helping with payment of taxes on Roth conversion
