401k
Employer-Sponsored: A 401(k) is an employer-sponsored retirement account, where you can contribute a portion of your pre-tax income, and many employers offer matching contributions.
Tax Benefits: Contributions to a traditional 401(k) are tax-deductible, reducing your current taxable income, but you'll pay taxes when you withdraw the money in retirement.
Early Withdrawal Penalties: Typically, you face penalties for withdrawing funds from a 401(k) before age 59.5, which can limit your flexibility if you want to retire early.
Limited Investment Choices: 401(k) plans often have a limited selection of investment options chosen by your employer.
I think that you can have the 401k as backup funds when you turn 59.5.

Roth IRA
Individual Account: A Roth IRA is an individual retirement account that allows you to contribute after-tax income. Qualified withdrawals in retirement are tax-free.
Limited Annual Contributions: Roth IRAs have annual contribution limits, which may be insufficient for early retirement savings, especially for high earners.
Early Withdrawals: Roth IRAs allow you to withdraw your contributions (not earnings) at any time without penalties, making them appealing for FIRE enthusiasts.
I think that you can have the Roth IRA as backup funds but no penalties on early withdrawal
