    Excellent. I hadn't heard that yet. So I can put in an extra $1,000 (I'm 55).

    I recently maxed my account for 2019 at 25K so for the remainder of the year I'm putting the money that would have gone to the 401k into our taxable Vanguard account. It will be nice to tax-shelter another $1,000 in 2020.
