When you change jobs you need to decide what to do with your 401k plan. there are 3 basic options: (1) cash it out, (2) leave your funds in your old 401k plan, (3) roll it over into an IRA or other tax deferred plan. Rolling your 401k into an IRA is often the best option as it allows to keep your investments in a tax deferred plan, avoid taxes and early withdrawal penalties, and give you total control over where and how you invest your money, the fees you …

No matter where you look more companies are learning that it is ok to outsource certain aspects of their business. While the term “outsourcing” always seems to conjure up negative connotations such as sending more jobs overseas, this is not always the case. one particular area of this is in the field of fleet fuel management, where you will be hiring a company located here in the US to help you gain control of your fleet fuel costs.
Those of you who either own or are in charge of managing a …

QP asked: I have recently changed jobs and would like to know if the annual limit still applies to my 401K.
For example, year to date I’ve contributed $10K to my previous employer’s 401K plan. Does this mea my 401K contribution for the year with the new employer should be less than 5.5K?

I recently received this question from a reader through the contact page of the site about a 401k rollover. If you have questions that you would like me to tackle, feel free to contact me through the site or send an email. I appreciate the chance to answer anyone’s question.
My husband recently switched jobs, and we have around $115,000 in his old job’s 401k. I’m not sure if we should switch it over to our new company’s 401k or into a Roth IRA. We have just purchased a large piece …

There are a lot of questions these days about how to rollover a 401k into self directed IRA accounts. The unemployment rate in 2007 was estimated by the Bureau of Labor Statistics to be at 5% in January and then jumped all the way to 10.2% in November 2009.
