IRA stands for Individual Retirement Account. Some types of IRA include roth and traditional IRA. Traditional IRA is where you pay taxes in the back end when you withdraw money in retirement. Roth IRA allows you to pay taxes in the front end without having to pay taxes in the back end. Roth IRA allows you to let money in your account get larger and larger in amount while traditional IRA forces you to start withdrawing by ages seventy-and-a-half.

The key differences between a Roth IRA and a traditional investment account are how they are taxed and when you pay taxes. In a Roth IRA, you contribute after-tax money, meaning you pay taxes on the money before you invest it, and then your withdrawals in retirement are tax-free. In a traditional investment account, you contribute pre-tax money, meaning you don't pay taxes on the money before you invest it, but you pay taxes on your withdrawals in retirement.
