Automatic 6% + 100% match up to 6% So 12%


That's legit, you're right.

Slightly off topic, but when a plan has an automatic contribution, I wonder how much of that is essentially taken out of what they would otherwise pay you? Depending on what you did with it, getting 6% extra pay could be better than getting a 6% automatic contribution.

It used to be 75% up to 4.5% plus a pension, but they killed the pension and just upped theb401k contribution.
