Its so easy yet so few are doing it. Shitty parenting.
Actually it should be 18% combined into an IRA if they earn enough to max the Roth: decreases tax liability as an added bonus, especially if you bracket down while doing so.

The Roth contributions (+10k in gains) can be withdrawn for a first time home loan; the IRA is directly for retirement
