Just wanted to add something here
My SIL DID have a 401k at her Insurance job
first husband left her-she could NOT pay bills....so her solution was to cash out the 401k-pay off house quickly and buy a car
so 9 months later its tax time and *SURPRISE* she owes a bunch of money
she waits until April 14th ( I kid you not) and frantically calls DH and his brother begging for a loan
we could not help her
she then went and borrowed the $$ somewhere
then a couple years later, when her divorce was final she had to pay the EX some of the value of the house-that she had paid off! so she then does the 2nd mortgage-but it also consolidated lots of credit card debt
so in essence-she probably had paid for this house 2 times over.....and might now lose it
