Default cover treated lumber with tar?

going to use 10 treated 4x6 posts as foundation for 10x12 shed.....guy at
menards sugested coating with tar to extend life. sounded like good idea to
me...also building inspector guy advised me not to concrete posts in ground
or frost will be problem.....dig holes 48" then concrete in bottom of hole
and posts sit on the concrete....sound OK? Thanks
