How do I get the money out of my 401k I no longer work for Anazon and want my money out of the account

Contact Vanguard and let them know you want to withdraw your money. That's how I did mine

I've been trying to figure that out since I quit

Depends on whether you want to roll it over, or pay taxes (& penalty) for taking it out prior to being retirement age. One way or the other, you have a year to do it, or they'll mail you a check less 20% penalty for early withdrawal AND it's still ordinary income and subject to state & federal income tax on the gross amount, pre-penalty. If you want to roll it over, there's two things you need to do. First is open an IRA at a bank or stock broker. Tell them it's for a rollover. Second, contact HR and get the name, number & email address of the 401K administrator, and contact them to get the roll over started. Alternatively, if you're working some where else, that has a 401K, you can roll it over there.

You may have to call HR or Amazon self help 800 number to require that info
