All,

I am 27 and I would like to have the opportunity to quit my job when I’m around 40 to do consulting work.

I have a 401K and Roth IRA. I’ve been plunking a lot of cash into these. Since I want to have the option of starting a business @ 40 years old, should I stop maxing my 401K and only put in the amount up to the company match, then start a personal account that’s focused on index funds?

It’s all about getting the $ out to start the business? What are the trade offs between a 401K or a personal account when using the $ to start a business?

Thank you
