FAQ

An IRA is not inherently better. They -401(k) and IRA, are both pre-tax investments dedicated for retirement. However, a 401(k), as you know allows you to contribute a higher amount than an IRA. What may make an IRA better is a broader variety of investment options within it.

Open a SIMPLE IRA through a bank or another financial institution. Set up a SIMPLE IRA plan at any time January 1 through October 1. If you became self-employed after October 1, you can set up a SIMPLE IRA plan for the year as soon as administratively feasible after your business starts.

You could use a traditional solo 401(k) or a Roth solo 401(k) for potential tax benefits. Once again, you receive the same tax benefits as you would with other self-employed retirement plans. A traditional solo 401(k) gives you an up-front tax deduction for contributions, but the withdrawals are taxed in retirement.

SEP IRA (simplified employee pension): Ideal for small business owners or freelancers with few or no employees. This plan lets you make contributions based on a percentage of your income, which can be beneficial when your business earns more, as contributions are tax-deductible and grow tax-deferred.

Bottomline, SEP IRA is beneficial for self-employed/small businesses WITH employees since they could give them an employee match. However, if you're self-employed WITHOUT employees, you have much more tax benefits + a much higher contribution limit with a solo 401k.

No, you can't open your own 401k. You can contribute to an IRA. The limit is 5500 for 2018. Note not all 401k have employer matches.

If you are self-employed, it's in your hands to set up a retirement plan for yourself. You have many options to choose from including an IRA/Roth IRA, SEP or SIMPLE IRA, but the best best choice, if you qualify, is the Solo 401(k) plan. Learn why! -- Learn more about the Solo 401(k): .

The $1,000 per month rule is a guideline to estimate retirement savings based on your desired monthly income. For every $240,000 you set aside, you can receive $1,000 a month if you withdraw 5% each year. This simple rule is a good starting point, but you should consider factors like inflation for long-term planning.

A 401(k) plan can only be established by an employer, but you yourself can be that employer. If you want to open a 401(k) just for yourself, you need to be self-employed with no employees of your own.

What is the 7 Percent Rule? In contrast to the more conservative 4% rule, the 7 percent rule suggests retirees can withdraw 7% of their total retirement corpus in the first year of retirement, with subsequent annual adjustments for inflation.
