I changed jobs in 2019 and the 401k provider changed from Fidelity to Vanguard with the employers. Ended up contributing 1k more than the yearly limit of 19k. Realized this while preparing the tax returns. Am I in trouble ? How do I fix this problem

You’ll just end up having to pay taxes on the money twice - so not in terrible trouble any means. Call Vanguard, explain the situation, and withdraw the $1000. Problem solved!

So I called Vanguard and the agent refused to resolve it stating deadline has passed. I was advised to work with a tax preparer. Sounds weird here

Everyone has a different perspective on this but would love to hear yours. Someone has debt ranging say 4-5% interest rates. Do you attack debt more then investing to move towards a debt free life or do you go after investments since they return historically above that then paying down closer towards retirement. I know the latter looks better on paper but what about the psychological factors of being debt free and the guaranteed return on interest savings.
