I have 401k and I want to take it all out and I don't have much, 2000 is in my account and I really need it. I apply for a loan and I was told that I had enough to borrow from and when I put my application in, I was told I didn't have enough to borrow. Stock market went up then down I was told. If I just withdraw everything, how much will I get after my penalty and taxes?

First if you are still working for that same company you normally can't just take the money out.

Ad what is their rules on borrowing. Also if the 2000 includes matching funds, are they vested ?

But assuming you can take the money out, the penalty if under age, is 10 percent plus state and federal taxes. So you are looking at 35 to 40 percent, to pay in taxes
