About this episode
A 401(k) is often seen as the cornerstone of retirement planning, but it may not be the complete solution many believe it to be. In this video, we take a closer look at what a 401(k) actually is, how it works, and the limitations that come with relying on it as your primary retirement strategy. We'll also discuss some of the factors like taxes, fees, and market risks—that can affect your long-term financial security, and why it's important to explore additional options when planning for the future.
