In response to "STIS -- What do we think of the idea of taking a loan from an 401(k) in order to pay down credit card debt?" by znufrii

No. If you lose your job (in today's economy, that more of a possibility) you have to pay the loan back in full immediately, or get hit with taxes

and penalties for early withdrawal.

Plus your 401K money isn't working for you when it's withdrawn
