Pressing 401K ( Credit Card )

credit card

Sometimes there is a sense of panic that determines when you look at " credit card "  bills begin to spiral out of control. If you are relatively new in the sense of being trapped by credit, you can switch to a second mortgage. But then, if the credit card account continues to grow and develop, because they are designed to do, you suddenly realize that you put your home on the phone and now can be at risk if you do not pay the bills.

It was at this point that the mountain of debt can start knocking on their door last resource to try to fight and you have to make important decisions. And it would be a good idea to check your retirement money or borrow from 401K to earn enough money to try to reduce their debt ratios. Then decide if it is a good idea is a big gamble, because if you win, you can eliminate all debt. But if you lose, there goes your protection over the years they may nest egg up and he wants to convey to the children as an inheritance.

Pressing 401K to pay off your credit card debt is a bad idea for many reasons. The most obvious reason is that the money is tax deferred retirement when you put in the account, you do not need to pay taxes on it. You do not have to pay taxes on it until you pick it up. In addition, the money is intended to remain as a backup until you reach retirement age, while in many cases, if taken in time, there is unfortunate that you have to pay.

So right away if you cash in your pension fund to pay or pay off your credit card debt, a lot of money lost to these penalties and taxes. You can calculate how much punishment will be compared to the interest you can save big salary coming out just to get the funds.

Logic applies hitting 401k is that, in theory, you will save more money és interest investments. But there is some sound logic of the pension fund, which is heard. First, the debt come and go, but the pension funds tend to disappear and never return. Once you pass the pension fund in cash and give the money to the credit card debt, your retirement is gone. But if you find a way to take care of credit card debt and only come out of retirement, it's there for you and you have a sense that the debt is not taken everything.

One of the possible changes is to borrow your 401K and use it as collateral. Or, in this case, you are still just exchanging debt for debt. But secured debts are often easier to obtain favorable interest rates and can be restricted so that the level does not float around like a credit card debt. So there is no reason to go this route. But if this is an option, you still put a very important part of your financial future on the line to tread carefully.
