Sot william goldsberry, west springfieldyou can work at a job for 5 years and not even knowing you have a 401k or how much money is in your 401k. They more they talk about taxes. A lot of people dont even know what tax free means when it comes to a 401k. But what it means matters. Dependi ng on how old you are, you can invest a maximum of between 18,000 and 24,000 annually in your 401k. The money goes in tax free and gets deducted from your adjusted gross taxable income on your w2 during tax season. Then the interest you earn earns interest through compounding. An average return of 7 a year will double your money every 10 years. Mark teed with Raymond James<\/a> investments told 22news taking away tax free is a disincentive. Mark teed, Raymond James<\/a> investmentsi think its a horrible idea. The savings rate in this country is already bad enough.

But its not your only investment option. You can contribute between 5,500 and 6,500 annually to a roth ira depending on your age. It has tax incentives too. The money is taxed before it goes in.

Sat down with californias newest senator Kamala Harris<\/a>. Kamala harris. Only the second African American<\/a> woman ever in the u. S. Senatehas had quite the first 100 days.

It is critical the administration and the president of the United States<\/a> that the words that are used should be thoughtful. Harris does have her share of critics who pan her time as california a. G. For playing politics with the office, which she denies. And her refusal, as San Francisco<\/a> da, to seek the Death Penalty<\/a> against a cop killer in 2004 could haunt her. But in her short time in the senate, shes worked with republicans such as marco rubio and Lindsay Graham<\/a> on measures about hate crimes and immigration. Longtime colleague congresswoman barbara lee. Rep barbara lee d senator harris is very tough she is smart and she is strategic and she is bold and a visionary she is honest and has a lot of integrity.
