e early say at 60 years old vs 65/66 when part of your income will be social security.

Further in my case I am making more money now but depending on if I "take an easier less stressful job" for say my last 5 years in the labor force then it would make more sense to do a Roth 401K then and take the tax advantage now as I am earning more

Lots of variables, like you said you need choices but right now future income is probably 35% real estate, 60% 401K and only about 5% RothIRA/Roth401K so I need to bump it in the Roth area anyway
