“Maxing out my Roth IRA vs. saving in HYSA”

I'm torn between maxing my wife's Roth IRA and saving more cash in a HYSA due to macro uncertainty and the 'use it or lose it' rule

What I wish I knew
"More about the long-term economic implications of my decision"
If I could tell you one thing
"Consider your individual financial goals and risk tolerance when deciding between maxing out a Roth IRA and saving in a HYSA"

Clear regret.
The downsides outweighed what was gained.
