Investing For Retirement

What sorts of rules are there regarding loans from 401k?

Typical rules are that payments must be made regularly, at least every quarter, that interest rates on the loan are “reasonable,” and that the loan must be paid off within a certain time frame (say, five years), unless it is used for the purchase of your principal residence, and in that case the payoff may be extended considerably.
