A client wanted help in consolidating her many 401k accounts. She had 6 "orphan" 401k accounts from her past companies and we created one IRA account to house all of the funds. By consolidating all of the accounts she now knows where the money is invested and how it impacts her goals for the future.
It took some time to get all the accounts transfered, however they are all working for her now. Many times people do not know what options they have when they leave a company. There are four options that are available to each person when you leave a company with a retirement program. This is a good option for most, however not all.
She is now on track to successfully achieve her goals in the future.
