Look, we all know quitting a job is wired into your lizard brain as a risk. Your 401k feels like a security blanket. Moving it around is like trying to fold a fitted sheet—confusing and slightly frustrating, but not impossible.
Just pick one of these paths. Don’t cash out unless you’re about to become homeless or need to start a goat yoga studio. And for the love of compound interest, don’t just ignore it forever.
You got this. Now go celebrate your freedom—and maybe schedule a 15-minute call with a financial advisor. They’ll make you sound smart, even if your 401k is currently in the “shoebox under the bed” phase.
