Please help…401K question?
Filed Under Financial Planning
mezwood asked:
My husband is about to quit his job to go to a better company. He has about 6,000 in 401K invested at this time. He seems to think that we will be able to withdraw that 6,000 from his 401K and use it to help with the expenses of moving, and possible towards a down payment of a home…I was always under the impression that a 401K can only be accessed when you retire…can anyone tell me what the rules are with a 401K?
