Thank you!

There isn’t a pre tax limit. There’s a 401k limit of trad+Roth+match+after tax 401k.

The trad+roth limit is 20.5
The after tax limit is max-(trad+roth+match) or what your co sets it at
The match limit is set by your co up to the total max

Curious about your thoughts on this one. I get why people maximize their 401(k)s, IRAs, etc for retirement. But what if your retirement investments get significantly reduced due to a stock market crash, or a banking/financial institution system failure (especially as people get close to their retirement age)? I mean with all the changes in the world, who is to say that these institutions are to be trusted? At the end of the day, your investments, paychecks, etc are just a number on a screen.
