NO. The taxable amount of any distributions from your 401K will be added to all of your worldwide gross income and be subject to the federal income tax at your marginal tax rate. It will not make any difference what you use the funds for because the contributions amount to the 401K were NEVER subject to income tax in the year that they were made as a part of your deferred compensation plan.

If your employer offers its employees the option to invest in a 401K, you would be very wise to take it.

What is a Roth IRA and how can one go about investing in one?

IRA stands for individual retirement account. A Roth IRA is a retirement account that you put money into in order to invest. The money you put in has already been taxed on your income tax returns. You put money in, invest it, it grows(hopefully), and when you take it out at retirement, the gains on your investments don't get taxed. If you take it out before retirement, however, there are tax penalties, so don't take it out. You can get a Roth IRA for free from most banks and online stock trading companies. Roth IRA's are different from Traditional 401k's in that you put money in a Traditional 401k through your employer pre-tax and the gains get taxed when you take it out at retirement.
