"Dies then only his/her spouse can take control or manage 401k and roth era..."

If owner of 401k and rogh era dies then only his/her spouse can take control or manage 401k and roth era . if sh/he is alive then its not allowed according to US 401k law that enables worker in US to save his saving for his/her retirement. You cannot even manage it on etrade. As 401k are empoyee sponsored, only the sole owner has the right to do anything with it. Xperiment
