Is this real? Will it happen? pretax contributions? https://www.cnbc.com/2026/08/11/trump-accounts-employer-match-paycheck-contributions-treasury.html
This is a pretty meaningful upgrade to 530A accounts. If parents can contribute pre-tax directly through payroll t starts looking much more like a child's 401k. The big question for me is whether employers actually adopt it at scale and how the final rules treat the pre-tax contribution limits. With roth conversions at 24, and the ability to use roths in a limited way for housing down payments, weddings, education etc it's interesting.
