Retirement
Should I take a 401(k) loan or personal loan?
Quick Answer
A 401(k) loan offers low rates (Prime+1–2%) and no credit pull but risks immediate repayment on job change and lost market growth. Personal loans cost 8–25% APR but don’t touch retirement. Pick a 401(k) loan only with stable employment.
