[OT] Retirement, 401k, Subcontracting

[robertlaferla at comcast.net (Robert La Ferla)]

Scott,

You probably need to roll your 401K over to a SEP/IRA.   Best to  
check with a financial advisor as there may be other options.  Be  
sure to mention that you are a first time home buyer because there  
may be special deals for you.
