I'm 29 and left my job - should I withdraw my 401(k) or roll it into an IRA?
Briefly

When you quit your job, it's generally advisable to roll your 401(k) into an IRA rather than withdrawing the funds. This option avoids significant penalties.
Taking out 401(k) funds early could be a costly mistake. The 10% penalty, combined with ordinary income tax liabilities, can negatively impact your retirement savings.
