I have been contributing after tax to my employer 401k. Rationale was
would need large enough tax deferred for fixed income to offset stocks
in taxable index funds. I can withdraw the funds but get suspended
from the 4% employer match for 6 months.
Thoughts on:
- contributing after tax money if you can't readily withdraw them
without a penalty?
- level of after tax assets where 2% penalty would be acceptable.
- leaving after tax money in 401k vs withdrawing into a ROTH.
