What should I do with my old 401k?

Lisa Emperador is a young professional who changed jobs after accumulating $8,000 in her old 401(k). She had several options for what to do with the money.

Lisa has a bunch of debt and could have cashed it out to pay down a car loan or credit card debt. Instead, she chose to roll it into a ROTH IRA managed through Betterment.

Was this the best option? Listen to the interview to find out if she regrets the move or is happy with her choice.

What would you do?  

Thank you for listening. Keep fighting your debt!
