loans

Q. I need another $30,000 to pay my son’s remaining college bills. I don’t have the cash. Am I better off with a home equity loan (my home is almost paid off) or should I take a loan from my 401(k) plan? I don’t plan to retire for another 10 years.

My sister wants to borrow $5,000. I have the money, but I’m not sure if I should do it. What should I consider and if I say yes, how should I do it?
