FAQ
How does employer matching work?
Your employer adds a percentage of your salary to your account when you contribute — commonly 50 cents to a dollar for every dollar up to a set cap.
Why should I capture the full match?
The match is an immediate, guaranteed return on your contribution; leaving it unclaimed is turning down part of your pay.
Is a 7% return realistic?
Historically broad stock markets have averaged near that over long periods, but future returns vary — test lower and higher values.
