401(k) retirement plans should be looked after as soon as you start working. Despite the fact that retirement might seem very far away, you will be there sooner than expected. If you have a look at the report called “How America saves 2022″ that Vanguard published in 2022, you can see the under-25 group has only saved 6,264 dollars on average.

That could be a goal if you have not saved anything at all yet. The first thing that you need to know is that making contributions to your 401(k) plan is free. There are limits though, so sticking to them is essential. Talk to your employer in order to see if you can get a match. That means your employer puts in a certain amount of money when you do so.

What are the new limits the IRS has announced about 401(k) plans?

An individual can make contributions to the 401(k) accounts they have up to 22,500 dollars. If we compare it to 2022, it was 20,500 dollars according to IRS. The amount of money every 20-year-old worker can keep for their saving plan is going to be different. Needless to say that it will depend on their income and expenses.

What is true for everyone, is the fact that you can always put away a certain amount and make it an automatic contribution. In this way, you forget about that money and you do not spend it either. Finding the right balance between your earnings and your savings is key to your financial stability.

Make your 401(k) plan grow by getting rid of high-interest-rate debt

If you have a personal loan or a credit card, they could be expensive. You might end up paying much more than you intended to. You pay so much money on interest, that it could have been saved for your retirement plan. It is of vital importance that you pay it off as soon as possible. Working extra in order to achieve it could be useful.

As soon as you pay this high-interest-rate debt, you will be able to save some more money. Every year, workers usually get a higher check. Once your salary is higher, your saving goal should be higher too. Another goal is to max out your 401(k) plan. It might seem to be a challenge but you will be back on track sooner than expected.
