Section 1306(a) indicates that the estate includes all property of the type
included in section 541 that the debtor acquires after the commencement of
the case and before it is closed, dismissed, or converted.
Property of the estate does not include such retirement funds as set forth
in 541(b)(7).
However, when such an asset is "cashed out" and becomes simply "cash",
isn't this just a postpetition asset that comes into the estate under
section 1306(a)?
