re: Saving More for Retirement - Trad IRA vs Normal Brokerage Account

I agree with your logic. The limits on IRA contributions seriously hamstring your ability to build a sizeable nest egg.
I am over the Roth threshold as well, but I make a max contribution every January to a Traditional then do a backdoor Roth conversion.
I also have a brokerage account for my "savings." It is about 2.5 times bigger than my IRA, but I look at the combination of the 2 as my retirement savings.
