A six figure income you say? that would be a maximum of
$9,999.99. Nice increase.

Default new Roth IRA conversion opportunity

The new tax law to take effect Wednesday removes the income
ceiling for Roth IRAs for 2010 and allows conversion taxes
spread over two years. This is mainly a gimic to counteract
the cost of continuing the long term capital gains and
dividend tax cuts with a one-time infusion of Roth
conversion tax revenues. It allows people with six-figure
incomes to take advantage of Roth.

Note, there will be two new Congresses before 2010, so law
could change again.
