Other valuable resources that Netbenefits provides are articles and workshops relating to financial planning. A calculator is at hand to help you estimate your net pay, expenses, payments, etc. With the complexity of present-day 401(k) plans, all of these resources are central factors to consider.

Today, millions of people contribute to their 401(k) plan provided by their employer. As a definedbenefit retirement plan, employees set aside part of their income that is then invested to build savings for the future. However, 401(k) plan facts can differ greatly from company to company. This makes it vital for employees to evaluate their plan and its options to make sure it is customized to fit their individual needs.
