Facts about 401(K) account are the following:

1. Employee contributions to a 401(K) are tax deductible

2. The employer's plan may not discriminate against lower paid employees

3. You cannot put into more than 25% of your earned income which is counted w/your employer's contribution

4. Growth within the 401(K) is tax-deferred until you withdraw your money

5. If/ when you die, if you are married & have a 401(K) your SPOUSE IS THE BENEFICIARY. Federal law says that the spouse is the beneficiary UNLESS they waive their rights

6. Tax sheltered but you can only put your money in investments that have been approved by your employer (diversify! Don't invest in your company's stock, look at the fees)

7. You generally cannot withdraw funds without penalty before age 59 1/2 except under special circumstances.

Why was more slaves in the south than the north why?

Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Explanation:

The work in the south was farming. To maintains these big farms you needed a lot of people to do the work. Since hiring people costs a lot of money they usually bought slaves to do the work for them because it was cost proficient. The north focused more on industry working and factories so people had a lot of jobs and there wasn't really a big need for slaves. That's why when the north wanted to abolish slavery the south didn't agree because most of their farms were maintained by slaves. Thus the Civil War happened.

Even though the United States had just had its own revolution to overturn a colonial power it did not support the revolution in

aev [14]

Well, for one, Haiti really didn't have anything to offer the United States. No territory. Nothing to trade. Nothing really. But also, the idea of Africans rising up against an oppressive white government and overthrowing them made the United States very nervous, especially since we, at the time, had institutionalized slavery and a culture that was very much steeped in racism. Basically, we were afraid that if we supported the revolution in Haiti, it would encourage our own slaves to revolt against Southern slaveholders.

 These thoughts appear in the concrete operational stage of Piaget's theory of cognitive development, which occurs between the ages of 7 and 11.
