Good guides for post processing? Hi! A couple of years ago I entered the world of photography with my A7III. As I mostly do wildlife-related trips, the main subjects of my pictures have mostly been animals, hence, I mostly used my Tamron 70-300 in these years.

What are some good resources to help me understand whether I should use traditional vs Roth accounts? I understand the general guidance of “will you have higher taxes now or later,” but it seems like there’s more to it than that.
