to get back to 100K youd have to gain 40K or 65%.

any 401k"s up 65% in the last year?



I don't pay that much attention to my 401K day to day but I know it is
worth 2.2 times more now than it was in 2001 (the only old statement I
turned up when I was digging out the tax tables).


mine is worth about what it was i 2001. so i've lost about 9 years.
and i'm 55. how does wall street give me those back?



the right is out of touch with normal people



If your 401k manager's head was a quarter inch out of his ass he knew
the market was crashing soon by 4q 2006


bull****. no one saw it save folks like roubini, etc. hell, t hey
just indicted goldman sachs for fraud because they defrauded some of
the world's most sophisticated investors.

if the guys who were DOING this **** for a living didnt see it, how
was middle class america supposed to?

you right wingers ALWAYS want to blame middle class america for wall
street's lies and deceptions
