[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]matching varies company to company. I currently work for a firm that "matches" 25 cents on the dollar of the 1st 6% you contribute. I would not make an emplayment decision around that. Given your description of both opportunities, I would take the offer with the firm that does not match and try and save whatever the difference is (self-funding the match). Think about it this way - if the opportunnity is so much closer to your house, [b]you are saving on gas each day[/b]![/quote] I see what you are saying. 25% on 6% is not going to make you rich, although evertyhing helps. And I did take into effect the commuting - the first is a 56 mile round trip on a horrible road and the second is 26 miles roundtrip with less wear and tear. The thing is, there is also a dollar value to a shorter commute in terms of family time and other considerations.[/quote]
