<prompt> Human: I have been recently trying to find the financial means to afford an engagement ring for my girlfriend that I have been seeing for the past 3 years. I have no doubt that she is the one that I want to be with for the rest of my life. The only thing that is currently hold me back is the investment of money that it is going to take for that ring, and how I should go about paying for it.I am currently 25 and work part time at the job that I was full time at 3 years ago. During my full time work at my current employer I placed money into their 401k program since they matched a certain percentage of contributions. As of today I have a vested balance of 4300 dollars... which is now at a total balance of 4900. My current rate of return is 7.53 percent.Now here is the question... Is withdrawing from this account a plausible option? or should i be looking for some other way to finance this important purchase?  <response>: Combination of horrible ideas.Save up, but a ring you can afford. If she doesnt understand, she isnt the one
