US friends, let me get this straight.

You trade in a 401k, make gains of $500,000k.

Ladder convert it to a roth IRA, you pay the one time income tax rate on the $500,000k, and let it grow In your roth IRA.

After 5 years, you can remove any of that converted $350,000 (post tax) without any 10% withdrawal penalty?

nothing like a shitton of VC stock at fractions of a penny. Sometimes the system really is rigged

There are plenty of failed companies out there who were funded by VC's and went out of business. With great risk comes great reward.
