Contributing to 401(k)

If I’m a CEO and I retire but my company pays me out over a three year period ($400k+/year) can i make a 401k contribution each year? The income I receive is reported on a w-2.

If not a 401k is there any other deductible or pre-tax account available to me?

Thanks to any and all.



Sale of a company is not wage income. Or do you mean you have other W-2 income? 

it’s sale of company stock.  is it considered deferred income?  not wage income.

Are these shares in come kind of a plan like an ESOP, or are stock options? If options, what kind of option?
