Funding your 2019 IRA: There's still time

Many people save for retirement in a 401(k), which makes a lot of sense if it’s available where you work.  You can especially benefit if your employer matches your contributions and if you want to contribute to the higher threshold that 401(k)s allow.  (Employees could contribute up to $19,000 to their 401(k) plan for 2019 and anyone age 50 or over was eligible for an additional catch-up contribution of $6,000 in 2019.)

However, you only had until the end of 2019 to make contributions to your 401(k). This means you can no longer put money into your 2019 401(k) if you didn't max it out.
