What Should I Do with My Old 401(k) or Employer Plan?


Listen Later

When you leave an employer (whether you’re changing jobs or retiring), your retirement plan doesn’t automatically move with you. You have to make a critical decision (or risk having that decision made for you in a way that’s better for the company or costs you money).

Your employer plan is one of your most valuable retirement assets, and deciding where it should go next is a decision with plenty of pitfalls and opportunities.

Handle it the right way, and you’ve protected your money’s tax-deferred growth and are in an optimal position for your current and future goals.

Handle it the wrong way, and you’ve given yourself a surprise tax bill, exposed yourself to potential IRS penalties, or robbed yourself of potential future wealth.

If you fall into any of these categories…

  • I left my old company and I need to figure out what to do with my old plan
  • I’ve got “zombie” plans sitting around and I’ve got questions about what I should do with them
  • I’m at or nearing retirement and I need to figure out how to turn my retirement plan into income
  • You’re in the right place. After you’re done listening this podcast, you’ll decide which of these strategies makes the most sense for your old retirement plan and know how to take the next steps that are right for you.
