When does it make good sense to quit your job and use your retirement plan fund to buy a business?


This is a question that many employees ask themselves on a regular basis.

Here are some of the signs that it is time!

  1. You are bored with what you are doing as there is no challenge in your work.
  2. Your income is not at the amount you think that it should be.
  3. Your employer is family owned so you can’t go too high up the ladder.
  4. You are tired of relocating and want to stabilize you and your family.
  5. You dread Monday mornings.

These are just some of the reasons to consider “retiring” and taking your 401K (tax free and penalty free) and using the money to buy an existing business.
