About this title

Synopsis

The Economic Growth and Tax Relief Reconciliation Act of 2001 will have far-reaching effects on two popular retirement savings plans: the IRA and 401(k).

As employees shoulder more responsibility for retirement investing, many enroll in their employers’ 401(k) plans without adequate information to build long-term security. Detailing the benefits and values of 401(k) plans in straightforward language, retirement program expert David L. Wray has put together a comprehensive guide for employees. Wray provides clear and thorough answers to such questions as:

• What are the advantages of participating in 401(k) plans?

• How do employers’ roles and contributions impact the most successful 401(k) plans?

• How will the 2001 tax bill affect 401(k) plans?

• How can investing early make a difference?

• What should investors do as they approach and move into retirement?

From responding to current market conditions to understanding recent tax law modifications governing 401(k) plans, this is the must-have reference for every employee.
