Why Borrowing from a Retirement Plan to Pay Off Debt Is a Bad Idea
Cammack Retirement Group Feb. 28, 2019 "Borrowing more doesn't address the issue of how the debt was acquired in the first place.... Some retirement plans require immediate repayment of loans if you change jobs, or else the entire loan is offset against your retirement plan account balance....
