True, in our plan you can have 1 loan on the 401K side, and you repay yourself with interest. The money is removed from your accounts, so you loose out on the money that it would have earned.

I do not think there is any method of tapping B fund money, short of retirement or resignation. The money is yours, 100% but not the same as 401K for loans as far as I know.
