This year if your IRA offers a roth you can transfer all of your IRA into a roth.

You will have to pay taxes on that amount transferred.

If you are young this may be a good deal.

You should plan on having low income this year so the taxes paid on the transfer would be minimized.

Just read an article on that last week.

Best to Google it.

I'm not an advisor so DO DO YOUR OWN DILIGENCE.

Transfer everything now and you won't have to pay the tax til April 2014. That leaves you 15 months to try and cover your tax liability.

The trick is knowing which side will go up for huge gains and which side will go to zero.

If you know that, just put both accounts in the side that will go up for huge gains and pay the taxes when they're due. You'll be much better off that way.
