How does the Secure Act help a small business?
The Act makes it easier for small businesses to offer retirement plans and provides greater access to retirement savings through increased tax credits. By encouraging consistent retirement savings, the Act can contribute to a more secure financial future.
When can I withdraw money from my 401(k)?
You can begin withdrawing money from your 401(k) without penalties after age 59½. Withdrawals made before this age may be subject to a 10% early withdrawal penalty in addition to regular income taxes unless you qualify for certain exceptions, such as hardship withdrawals or specific circumstances like permanent disability.
Can I take a loan from my 401(k)?
Many 401(k) plans allow participants to take loans from their accounts, typically up to 50% of the vested balance, with a maximum limit of $50,000. However, this loan must be repaid with interest within a set period, usually five years. It’s important to note that taking a loan from your 401(k) can reduce your retirement savings and may have long-term consequences if not repaid properly.
How much should I contribute to my 401(k)?
A standard recommendation is to contribute at least enough to take full advantage of your employer’s match, as this is essentially free money. Beyond that, financial advisors often suggest contributing 10-15% of your income towards retirement savings, including your 401(k) and any other retirement accounts.
How does a Roth 401(k) differ from a traditional 401(k)?
A Roth 401(k) is similar to a traditional 401(k) but has crucial tax treatment differences. Contributions to a Roth 401(k) are made with after-tax dollars, meaning you pay taxes on the money before it goes into your account. However, qualified withdrawals during retirement are tax-free, including your contributions and any investment earnings, as long as certain conditions are met.
