If your employer doesn't offer a retirement plan, you can always start by putting money in a traditional IRA or Roth IRA. But if you have access to a 401(k) or other employer plan, and your 401(k) offers a matching contribution, that's usually the best place to start. For example, let's say you make $115,000 per year.
1 Rule of Thumb 1: Contribute enough to max out any employer match. 2  This rule applies to 401k participants at every age. 3  If you make $40,000 and your employer offers a 50% match up to 6% of salary, you should contribute at least $2,400 to get the full available $1,200 employer match. If you make $40,000 and your employer offers a 50% match up to 6% of salary, you should contribute at least $2,400 to get the full available $1,200 employer match. 2  Failure to get the full employer match is the equivalent of throwing retirement savings away.
