General rule of thumb is to max out your 401k if your employer matches at all. If your employer does not match (like the US Gubmint), then you can look at a Roth IRA as an alternative, the numbers come out a little in favor of the Roth vs a 401k with no match. With the match the 401k wins hands down since you get an automatic "return" on your dollars from the match.

Max out those retirement plans early!!! Lord knows Social Security won't be around when we get old...
