INDEPENDENT 401-K
A 401(k) plan designed for an individual operating a sole proprietorship or a small establishment managed with a spouse or intermediate family member. Plan contribution limits for the individual are equivalent to a normal firm-sponsored 401(k). However, the sole owner can also create an employer contribution to an independent 401(k), therefore increasing the total contribution allowed. Also called an indie K or solo 401(k). The main drawback to this plan is no outside workers can be hired or the widow of applicability closes.
