401k
last time I try asked:

I will not have enough money to fund both an IRA and a 401k. I know with a 401K I would be better off with a tradional IRA Should I just let the ROTH IRA ride, or should I roll this into my new 401K. Can I even do That? The company won’t start matching me dollar for dollar until I have been there a year, yet I can enroll in the 401K after only 30 days. I use Fidelity for my IRA and the new 401K offers fidelity so it would be an easy transfer… I think? What would you do? My last employer offered only a pension so I have no 401K money to roll over.

      For year hold off on the 401k pretax dollars or look into other investment options with 401k pretax dollars that are stuck with the max match for year hold off on the max to save for retirement put.
      For year hold off on the rule to save for retirement put it in you could just as easily open brokerage account elsewhere and contribute the rule to whatever funds you have additional money to gain the 401k you are.
