Introduction: Are you considering starting a business but don’t want to take on debt or seek outside investors? 401(k) business funding, also known as a Rollover for Business Startups (ROBS), is a powerful way to fund your business using your retirement savings without penalties.
Key Points:
- What is 401(k) Business Funding? 401(k) business funding allows entrepreneurs to use their retirement savings to invest in a new business without early withdrawal penalties or taxes.
- How Does It Work? Through the ROBS structure, you roll over funds from your 401(k) to a corporate retirement account that invests in your new business.
- Is It Safe? While it involves risk (as with any business investment), it is a legal and IRS-compliant strategy for using your retirement savings.
