Default Re: 401K How Much?

I'm 29, and started my 401k when I had just turned 24. I opened the 401k the second I started the job, and have always contributed 8%. My company matches 60% of the first 8% you contribute.

I intend to keep the contributions at 8% and open up a Roth this year. I'm not sure if I'll get the full $5000/year max contribution in 2007, but I'll try.
