You been making investment changes in your 401K?
Well as soon as your financial situation improves, the first thing I would do is contribute more to the 401k...at least up until the matching point.I think they would put like 15% of what I would put in. I was putting in like $42 and they would add another $8. I only did it for a few months. I couldn't afford it so I stopped after a few months

You have to find out from your employer what that matching point is. THe below is a good rule of thumb on how to prioritize your money. If you dont have an emergency fund, do that first. THen, add more to your 401k up to the match. Then, funnel the rest to tackle the debt.What would be the matching point? I have $8700 in credit card debts. I'm trying to work on that.

Yea you could flip those two depending on you're situation. Kind of depends on the debt and the interest rate and how much. You can only contribute a certain amount towards retirement by law. And you cant get that back if you miss it.He Gotta Tackle That Debt Before The 401K IMO
What's The Debt OP? Credit Cards? How Many?
