In case you don’t know it. In the USA, the 401K plan is an employer-sponsored retirement plan that eligible employees may make tax-deferred contributions from their salary to on a pre-tax basis. That means you aren’t gonna pay any tax until the money is withdrawn from your account. Most of the time, employers often make matching contributions on behalf of the employees to help fund their retirement.
For example, some employer may match dollar for dollar up to a certain percentage of the employee’s annual salary. Some employers contribute $50 for every $100 that an employee contributes, also up to a certain percentage of the employee’s income. That’s free money for the employees that if properly invested in suitable investments, will go tax-deferred, and the employee can start withdrawing during retirement.
The 401(k) plan became law in 1978 and is named after the subsection of the Internal Revenue Code that established it. As of Sept. 30, 2017, 401(k) plans accounted for roughly $5.3 trillion of the $27.2 trillion in total retirement-plan assets in the United States, The IRS imposes contribution limits per year, although limits for 401(k) plans are more generous than those for other plans: $19,000 in 2019, up from $18,500 in 2018. This increases to $25,000 if you’re age 50 or older.
