If your 401k hasn't recovered yet you better seriously look into

do you know mathematics?

I can add and subtract

no sign of that at all

do you know equities, bonds, securities, etc?

I understand an up and a down market. I actually study the companies I
buy stock in.

and some of us actually work for a living. me and 100,000,000
americans don't have the time to build a country AND keep an eye on
wall street.

no one in my age group has had their 401K's recover yet. Stocks are at
11,000, a far cry from 14,000 2 years ago.

Mine is OK, significantly better than it was a year ago and quite a
bit better than when I stopped putting money in it. in 1998. (more
than double)

and mine IS better. it has not recovered

you're an idiot.

I am an idiot who is doing OK in the market, what does that say about
your 401k manager

he works for wall street. me and 100,000,000 americans. taking the
only option wall street left us, after the right destroyed the pension
system, invested in 401K's.

If they were doing their job the would have sold into that decline and
bought the hell out of the bottom. Now that the market is close to
where it was a few years ago they should be showing a tidy profit.

uh no. the market is still about 35% below where it was at 14,000

... but it is 83% better than it was at 6,000. There are loots of
stocks like CLNE that are triple what they were 2 years ago.

and my 401k is up. but not recovered

I am just a dumb old working class redneck and I did fine.
I am sitting an a couple "doubles" and a "triple".

that you're dumb is simply fact.

that you're a redneck is beyond dispute.

that your 401K has recovered simply means you had no investments to
begin with.

Do you want my list of stocks ?
Maybe you could learn something.

i already have. unlike you i've learned not to trust wall street and
the right wing.

you're still their sucker
