go fish | How much should i put in my 401k when my employer matches 5%? |
or what % should i put in my 401k if my employer matches 5% |

You want to put in at least enough to get the maximum employer match. So if your employer matches your contribution up to 5%, then you want to do 5%.
If you have the resources for investment beyond that, put it into a Roth IRA, instead of more into your 401(k). All the earnings in a Roth are tax FREE, not just tax deferred. |

5 percent then a private Roth IRA to max out and then a private regular IRA to get more and better choices. |

If you are in your 20's - the max; you'll learn to live without it. The higher the savings the higher the yield; no matter what your employer will match. |

If possible put in the max, for 2007 that is 15,500. If not at least put in 5% to get the match from your employer. |

Maximum is a good idea, but at least 5% to get 100% of the employers match. |

Depends on a number of factors:
Your age
Marital Status
Any kids
Your living conditions
If your young with no responsibility, then max out.
If your married with responsibility then calculate it in your budget. |

The max you can put in. |

max it out. the more you put in the more employer will match. try to put away an even amount each paycheck as opposed to all at once.
