More Americans are withdrawing from 401(k) plans amid ongoing financial strain, with a 1% rise in withdrawals since 2024, according to financial planner Bill Dendy.
The average withdrawal is just under $2,000, primarily to avoid eviction or foreclosure.
High inflation, though now moderated, continues to outpace wage growth, increasing pressure on household budgets.
