After being downsized by Megacorp 1 7 months ago and spending a very pleasant time fishing and hiking with my dog I am about to join Megacorp 2. The time off has confirmed that I want to FIRE in about 5 years. My question is what to do with my 401K from Megacorp 1? (about 400k)
1. Leave in Megacorp 1 401K - decent selection of low expense index funds
2. Role over to Fidelity IRA
3. Role over to Megacorp 2 401K which is run by Fidelity and seems to have access to all Fidelity funds.
Should I choose option 2 as it allows me to convert to a Roth IRA at some point in the future?
Should I choose option 3 so that I can make early withdrawals under rule 72t?
Thanks for your thoughts.
