Why can't I contribute up to the IRS limit via my 401k? What other options do I have? I have a retirement plan at work and appear to be over the AIG limit to shelter income via a seperate Traditional IRA.

I participated in the Roth to the tune of $60k. I also had $146k in the original, traditional 401k. We were acquired in September by a company that does not offer a Roth. Yesterday, they transferred all of these funds ($206k) into their traditional 401k. Since I've already paid tax on the money in my Roth it doesn't seem kosher that they could move it into a taxable investment. Is this legal?

In the last couple of years they've offered a Self-Directed Brokerage Account. What kind of records do I need to keep in order to be able to figure the cost basis when I start to sell-off funds as part of required retirement distributions?
