Wondering what to do with your 401(k) when you retire or are nearing retirement?
You’ve worked for what seems like your entire life. For years, the alarm buzzed before even the sun began to shine and at times, you didn’t arrive back home until the stars were out. Despite paying all the bills for you and your family’s expenses, you’ve still managed to save and put money away in your employer’s 401(k) plan. For many people, they believe that the hardest stage to accomplish is the “saving” phase but the truth is, that’s just half the battle.

Trying to figure out which plan is the best one for your specific situation as all of the available options have their pros and cons. Download the 401(k) Survival Guide and start figuring your plan out today.
