> So you want all of the benefits of a 401k but without the restrictions? Seems like a legit request, eff those unfair 401Ks giving you 40 years of compound interest on untaxed money.

If someone is willing to withdraw money and pay the necessary taxes on them, the IRS should have ZERO say in what I use the money for. It’s not like I’m trying to withdraw money I didn’t pay taxes on and not pay taxes still. Trying to loophole a withdrawal under a hardship is an entirely different matter and yes, that, I frown upon as well.

So yes, in my opinion, it is very unfair.
