-The Roth retirement plan under US [[law]] that is generally not taxed, as long as certain conditions are met. The US tax law allows reduction in tax on a limited amount of [[saving]] for retirement. Roth IRA's main difference from the majority of tax advantaged retirement plans is that, instead of granting a [[tax break]] for money placed into the plan, the tax break is granted on the money withdrawn from the plan during retirement.
-"A Roth IRA is setup and funded by an individual; however, some employer/group plans can have Roth accounts.  A Roth is unique in that it is funded with after-[[tax]] [[dollar]]s, meaning the individual does not deduct the contribution from that year’s [[income tax]]es.  He or she pays income taxes on the dollars earned and then contributes to the Roth.  The benefit of this account type is that the distributions at retirement age are 100% tax-free. No income tax is claimed from the distribution."<ref>http://survivalblog.com/guest-post-self-directing-your-retirement-sheltering-the-fruits-of-your-labor-by-will-lehr Accessed December 8, 2014</ref>
