457b into a Roth ?

By Terry Savage on March 18, 2026 | Financial Planning / Retirement

I am 64, have $36k in a 457b and wanted to know if I should put in a tax free Roth, even though I know if I take it out, they will take out taxes first (I believe). I do not plan on using it for anything for a couple years, but use it as emergency funds, if that need occurs.

Thank you
