<prompt> Human: Im 27, almost 28, and contributing the maximum to my retirement through work. I contribute 5.5 while my employer matches my contribution with 8. I was wondering how much those contributions would be worth in the future instead of what they are currently worth. I would like to see how much that benefit is actually worth, not the basic monthly contribution times 12.x200B;The reason being, I was offered a job that was a 15 raise, however their benefits are not as good. The offer comes from a company that does not contribute to a 401k, instead they give higher salaries.  <response>: 1 in your 401k is worth pretty much the same as 1 increase in salary slight favoritism to 401k funds if you are maxing out your 401k, but only slight
