Maximize Your 401(k) in 2026
Your 401(k) is one of the most powerful tools for building wealth, but most people aren't using it to its full potential. Small changes now can add up to tens of thousands of dollars in retirement.
Don't leave free money on the table. Between employer matching, increased 2026 contribution limits, and tax advantages, your 401(k) offers multiple opportunities to boost your retirement savings. This checklist ensures you're taking advantage of every benefit available to you.
Know your limits and how to max them out. The 2026 contribution limits have increased, and new catch-up provisions mean even more saving power for those approaching retirement. Make sure you're contributing enough to capture your full employer match and optimize your tax strategy.
Turn good intentions into concrete action. It's easy to set your 401(k) contributions once and forget about them, but an annual review ensures your investment allocation matches your goals and timeline. Get the clarity you need to build real wealth for retirement.
