Retirement tax questions

Great question!

It indeed could be viewed as a loophole for getting money into a retirement type account.  However, remember, you can't get it out for 15 years without penalty.  

If your goal is purely retirement savings, a 401k via employer, SEP if self employed, or IRA year contributions is a better vehicle.
