Reply to comment by Werewolfdad in What happens if my 403b loan defaults? by Cubby8

So if I don’t pay, the plan administrator would essentially garnish my wages to pay it back? I just never read anything about that when I was researching. Thanks.

You don’t have an option to not pay. It just comes out of your paycheck.

You give them authorization to deduct that as part of the approval process.

Gotcha. That makes sense. I’ve never done anything like that and was curious. I just hate the fact that I was contributing to something with no growth potential and that money is just sitting there.

Your plan doesn’t have an option for non-annuity based investments?

Check out 403bwise.org for potential options

Ah thanks! I didn’t realize my district had other options.
