Question:

I have about $19,000 in my 401k and I was laid off four months ago. The company I was working for might go out of business. A couple of people have told me I could lose my 401k if the company goes out of business and I should pull it out. The 401k is thru State Farm. I want to pull out about $4,000 after the first of the year and invest the rest in a retirement account with someone else. What should I do?
