Hey All,
My wifes company recently started offering 401K. She makes 85K per year. My income is 67K. I am putting 12% in my 401K. My intention is to reduce my taxable income as much as possible.
Their vesting schedule is as given....
0-2 years 0% 2-3 years 20% 3-4 years 50% 4-5 years 100%They will contribute for upto 4% of gross annual income.
When I was going through the fund I saw the expense ratios to be on an average 2.2%. At what percentage of vesting will it become worthwhile to put money in 401K to offset those high expense ratio?
I was leaning towards going traditional IRA till the vesting doesnt get to 50%. Should we totally avoid this 401K plan and stick to traditional IRA. I am not eligible for traditional IRA as I put money in 401K.
Thanks for comments, suggestions......
