The Bore01(K) - The Make More Money Account - On Today's #DailyDish

Why do they call it a 401k? What a boring name from a line in the tax code. Let's call it a "pay less taxes now, maybe get more money from your employer, & grow your wealth through tax-deferred investing account..." Too long? Well, if you know anything about me, I'm long-winded. Join me as I talk about ways to start investing in the stock market with your 401k and the advantages of low cost, well-diversified, index funds. I hope to make it less painful than it sounds. Also, to clarify something I didn't know at the end of the podcast, you can start taking money from your 401k when you reach the age of 59 and a half without tax penalty. There are some other ways to access the money before that, but that stuff's real boring. Invested like it's spent! #MoneyWoke if you're returning listener, thank you so much! I'm told I should ask people to leave a rating and review. So if you got a sec...

Just Start. It's as easy to do, as it is to say. If building your own project, personal skills/talents, brand, social influence, or business interests you, or if you're just looking to change the world, you MUST start somewhere. Here's the good news, no one is an overnight success. 1st drafts don't get hung in museums. Start with no one watching; you become good at it, when they begin to pay attention.
