Give it time, Deshy. It isn't even fully implemented yet. Isn't that what you apologists keep saying?

Now, explain which Obama actions caused the Dow to surge.

Go!
 
hahahahahahahahahahahahahahahahah



fuck off you stupid fucking piece of shit.

not fully implemented.


jeeeesssh


You have been saying just the idea of it would kill all commerse like poison pill
 
It would be interesting to go back and re-read some of the mid 2000's policy debates over allowing individuals the option to put a small portion of their social security in a private investment fund. I recall much rhetoric along the lines of people would lose all their retirement gambling in the market or the market would go down and they would lose their money. I wonder how many of those people are celebrating the market where it is today?

(And yes one can think allowing personal accounts was bad public policy while still cheering on the market but I'm talking about those whose argument was geared around the poor performance of the market)
 
do you know how many people were FORCED to keep working because of 401Ks tanking?


you people just don't get it

How many was that Desh? Should we expect a larger than expected number of people retiring now because 401k's are growing at such a rapid rate?
 
people retire when they are at a certain age.


with a 401 K you get less and its subject to market crashes
 
BTW if you smart you switch out of stocks as you near retirement.


that means you have to depend on how old you are NOT what the market is doing.

do you have a retirement plan?

Yes people often do get more conservative in their portfolio's as they get older.

A Pension Story that Hits Home

My father retires on May 1st. He put in 36 years with the State of Michigan. At one point in the early 90′s, the State offered him a 401(k) cash exchange for the existing value of his defined benefit pension. He turned it down. It was the wisest decision he ever made. In May, he will begin to receive over $3,000 per month in pension benefits above and beyond his living expenses. And this doesn’t even include Social Security, or the 401(k) that he started from scratch! He’s set for life and has the security in knowing that his pension benefits are safe and guaranteed.

Could he have had a bigger payout if he switched? Maybe, but most likely not. The stock market hasn’t advanced in the last 12 years, after all. Either way, I’m almost positive that he’s been able to sleep a whole lot easier back then and he certainly is now
