hernandez80126 | Should I Contribute into my 401k even though they do no match anything? |
I'm 35 have $120.00 going in monthly and thinking of increasing this to $300.00 a month is this a good idea or should I look for a different investment program since they do not match anything? |

It depends on the investments available in your 401(k). If it's not an investment you would otherwise consider, I would look for something else. |

Since they dont match, it depends on the options in the 401k. Dont put tooo much in the company stock. Stay away from B shares, the fees are too high. Your long term tax rate is most likely to be less than your current, so that shouldnt be an issue. If they've got a good selection of investments to spread your risk, then it would probably be a good idea to invest in it. If you max that out, then consider a Roth IRA. |

There's a growing perspective that suggests maxing out your 401K contribution is not such a good idea. Here's the rationale:
Individual tax rates have been cut in recent years. Given the deficit, situation on social security and medicare/medicaid, long-term tax rates will need to go up - considerably.
So consider that you are deferring income taxes as tax rates are relatively low only to take the money out when you retire when rates MAY be significantly higher.
If my company didn't match - I would seriously consider investing in other areas. |

The more you can afford to put in to any plan, the better. If however, your plan does not have different investemnt options that you can move in an out of at your discretion, by options I mean equity stocks, mutual funds, growth funds etc., then look for another 401K plan that allows you more flexibility and control. |

Although some other people recommended just using a different 401k, you simply dont have a choice. If you want to use 401k then you have to actually work at that company. That being said. When there is no match it is generally a better idea to do a traditional ira or a roth ira. If you are able to max one of them out then and only then would I put any additional money into the 401k. You will have more flexibility and total control of the money. I would recommend doing some research on the mutual fund companies like fidelity or t.rowe price or any of the big ones with alot of fund choices and set up the ira with them. Put away as much as you can afford until you max out. Good luck. |
