I understand the contribution limit is around $60,000 yearly. However, how much can you start the account with?

@Anthony Freeman

That’s misleading

An individual has a limit and the company can contribute a percentage of the profits to the employees plan. So total between employee and company is around $60k but make sure to understand the differences between the two

Is there a limit to what you can start the account with?

@Anthony Freeman As for starting the plan that probably depends on the company you use. I don't recall a government minimum.

 It does not house much you can start with. This depends on how much income you have. What entity have you got? There are limits based on income or wages. The max is around 60k.
