@melissadorman: Your 401k is not a wealth plan. It's a waiting room. Locked until you're almost sixty, taxed on the way out, never pays you a dollar along the way, and the size of the pot depends on the market's mood the decade you retire. Keep it, take the full match. But it can't be the whole plan. A rental pays you now, every month, while it grows and shelters its own income. Retirement and freedom are different purchases. My free book shows how regular people buy the second one, without a bank. Comment FREEDOM. 🖤 #401k #financialfreedom #realestateinvesting #consciouswealth
