So, in other words, I should be screaming and bitching about the
"loss" of
money that I never earned or had. I see. Starting to understand how
the
left thinks.

go ahead and try to get a loan using your 401K as collateral

see what happens

When would any lender accept a 401K account as collateral?
since it's a standard part of a loan applcation. that's when

I'm going to try to guess what you meant to say...

Loan applications usually are interested in liquid assets. 401K accounts
don't count. I ralize they can be liquidated but loan officers aren't
interested in that.

Even if you can't touch a 401k in bankruptcy, a healthy for your age
401k or IRA balance shows your not a fly by night loser. That is, if
you were 50 and didn't have a 401k/IRA, I would count that against you
big time.
