on your financial knowledge
"All things are difficult before they are easy" - Thomas Fuller
8. Retirement income paid by a company is called:
a.) 401 (k).
b.) Pension. These have become rare, especially after the 401(k) plan became widely accepted by companies. Pensions are defined benefit plans because the pay a set dollar amount based on years worked. 401(k) plans are called defined contribution plans because their success - and ultimately, the payout -is determined by how much a worker contributes over the course of a career.
Pensions are not portable but may be payable by one company even if you leave and work for someone else. 401(k) plans on the other hand, are portable and usually must be taken with you and rolled over into another deferred tax account.
c.) Rents and profits.
d.) Social Security.
