401K Loan-- Is it the answer to our desperate financial situation?

One year ago I was diagnosd next to Radiation Induced Plexopathy (both active and acute) within legs and feet. I care for young children contained by my home provideing daycare for nine years. As of 12/2007, I had to wrapping up it due to my illness. I file for SS Disability and was denied not long. I just started the appeal process, next to the assistance of an attourny.

This is the deal, We own one credit card that is used just for vehicle repairs and medical bills, and it is almost maxed out at $8,000. My husband has put a stop any 401K WD from his paycheck, and increased his dependants to 4 (we hold a 4 & 9 year old). With these changes he can almost cover adjectives our monthly bills. However, we do not have any money not here over for food or gas, and we need brakes and tires for our 2002 van.

My suggestion is a loan from our 401K, near high hopes that we will know how to begin repayment when I gain approved for disability.

Is this the thing to do, or is here another answer? HELP!!

When you complain roughly speaking the cost of gas, do you stealthily.?



Answers:   SSI takes forever to run through the system. Don't do the loan thing. You are better sour paying the taxes and penalties and cashing it out completely if you jump that route. Just remember that once the money is gone, it's gone. Try to leave it near as something to accumulate interest as a long residence thing if there's any other opening of getting caught up near your bills and debt. I totally understand your fears and frustrations and sympathize near the situation. Take a deep breathe. Put ancestors first, then money, consequently things. Prayer may not help but it can't hurt.

Why do so abundant nation rave something like Rich Dad, Poor Dad?


Even if a 401(k) loan be a reasonable conception, you CAN'T begin repayment IF you are approved for disability. The repayments WILL get going with his subsequent paycheck. That said, in the luggage you describe, you have an INCOME issue. ANY loan will breed the problem WORSE. If you can't cut your SPENDING, you MUST increase your income.
NOTE: Until you fix your INCOME, ignore the credit card. Even if they sue, you hold nothing they can whip. The problem with a 401K loan is that if your husband loses his profession, the entire amount of the loan is due within 60 days.
If he default, then he owes the IRS income taxes plus a 10% cost on the amount he "borrowed"
And you can't wait for repayment.

How much does your husband gross?
Perhaps your financial problem is a symptom of his income problem.
