Re: 401K before credit card debt? or other way around?
As Dave Ramsey might put it, would you borrow on credit cards to fund your retirement?
The answer would be no.
If you can be credit card free in 18 mos or less, you should stop your 401k to use to pay off the cards. If it's longer then...at least invest up to the amount your company matches. Just my opinion it's really personal choice. Seems like not investing, might scare you into paying off that credit card debt faster!
