Suze inspired me to increase 401K
| Fri, 01-09-2009 - 2:31pm |
I just went online and increased my husbands 401K contribution. It was stressful, it was nerve racking. I had to go into my files and find the paper that told me how to do it. It was a little confusing, but I did it! I increased his contribution from 3% to 8% because his company matches 1/2 up to 8% of his pay. I know that we can live without seeing this money in his check every week, but I'm sure it will be a little depressing to see that first smaller check come in. I did this because of the free book download I'm reading from Suze Orman. I know it's the smart thing to do...

I appreciate the thoughtful responses to my post regarding 401Ks.
Anytime an employer offers matching funds that's free money.
Very interesting discussion.
These are historic times...and the rules have changed.
Just a few years ago, it would have been ridiculous not to participate in a 401K or contribute to an IRA.
It sure looks funny that I'm responding to my own post!
