IS TAX-DEFERRED A PROPER TOOL?

Traditional 401(k)s postpone your taxes — they don’t eliminate them. Before you keep contributing, make sure you understand what you’re really signing up for.

What "Tax-Deferred" Really Means

When you contribute to a 401(k), you’re not avoiding taxes — you’re postponing them until retirement, when your tax rate could be just as high, or higher, than it is today. Meanwhile, your money is exposed to market risk, contribution limits, and early-withdrawal penalties.

MARKET RISK

Your 401(k) balance can drop when the market does

TAX UNCERTAINTY

You're betting future tax rates will be lower than today's

CONTRIBUTION LIMITS

Annual caps restrict how much you can really save
