Your employer's free money: the retirement match
Would you turn down a pay rise? Skipping your employer's retirement match does exactly that.
The simple version
Many employers add money to your retirement account when you pay in — a workplace pension in the UK, a 401(k) match in the US, superannuation in Australia. Pay in less than the match and you leave free money on the table.
