People are fearful about looking at their 401K statement. They would rather not know of losses in their account. Plan documents are usually filled with legalese that people cannot understand. It is hard to choose investments from plan sponsors when you don’t know how to evaluate your investment options.
I plan to change all that. With this information, you can learn why you should contribute to a 401k plan and all the benefits that you get from your contributions. There is also a step by step guide on how to choose your investment options. After you read this, you will want to look at that statement because you will know what to do next. You will want to plan for your future and look forward to getting back to financial health. The stress will be removed from making this financial decision.
I am a Certified Financial Planner with over 25 years of experience in helping individuals with their personal finance decisions. I wrote this eBook to guide you to a better understanding of the 401K plan and to give you the confidence to contribute, invest and monitor your 401K plan to build wealth. The financial industry makes it hard. I make it simple.
Let’s get started and stop your portfolio bleeding, so you can get back to financial health and wealth.
