<prompt> Human: Hello all,I just had my first 401k meeting at my job and the financial advisor stated you cant max out company 401k AND a Roth IRA.He stated since they are both qualified meaning you get a tax break on them, you can only max out one. He stated the max for the 401k is 18500 and the max for a Roth is 5500 or 6000. I can put up to 18500 in either one, meaning i could max the Roth with 5500 but i can only put 13500 in the 401k. Does this make sense? I thought i determined through all my research that you could max out both but apparently not. Any responses are greatly appreciated. Thanks guys  <response>: the financial advisor stated you cant max out company 401k AND a Roth IRA.Completely false. Your IRA contribution is unrelated to your 401k limit. You can do both.
