Any personal finance experts here who know what the optimal 401k strategy is if we are leaving within 6 months? Are we even being matched for these 6 months?

Doesn’t matter about match, still invest in 401(k) due to tax benefits. Free monies. If you need it for school you can withdrawal penalty free.

If you can manage it from a living expense standpoint - you can bump your contribution % to like 60% to max out the contribution by mid year before we leave

Makes sense. Question on the withdrawals. I thought there was a 10% penalty? Is that not true if paying for education?

Indeed exception for school and first home purchase among other things

I posted this somewhere else before I remembered that I am in this bowl :) so, I changed jobs 6-7 months ago and I am realizing it is not a good fit. Leadership seem to not want to hear the truth so people tell them what they want to hear and if you don’t middle management gets pissed at you. I am seriously thinking about looking somewhere else. My question is how do you answer the “why are you looking to leave” question without bad mouthing your current company?
