Should I put all my funds into the 401k and open a Roth with another brokerage? Or do both options through the company?

      At your income level/tax bracket, choose the Roth 401k and start with a basic low cost index fund that invests in the total market or S&P 500. You can add other stuff later and you do not need any more diversification than what is already inside one of those funds.

      Do not use target date funds if you don’t have to.

        The regular 401k will save you on taxes and is usually the best choice for most people. Ideally you contribute the MAX to the 401k $22,500

        If you can spare more money to save and invest, open up a ROTH IRA on your own at a place like Vanguard, Fidelity or Schwab. If possible, contribute the MAX to that ROTH IRA $6,500.00
