A 401(k) retirement plan is a tax-advantaged investment account offered by employers to help employees save for retirement. Here's a summary of 401(k) and retirement plans:
-
Employer-Sponsored: 401(k) plans are typically offered by employers as part of their benefits package. Employees can contribute a portion of their pre-tax income to the plan, which is then invested in a variety of investment options, such as mutual funds, stocks, bonds, and target-date funds.
-
Tax Advantages: One of the key benefits of 401(k) plans is their tax advantages. Contributions are made on a pre-tax basis, meaning they are deducted from your paycheck before taxes are withheld, reducing your taxable income. Additionally, investment gains within the 401(k) plan grow tax-deferred, meaning you won't pay taxes
