yeah i've been doing the minimum for awhile. lots of managers

Have you ever thought of putting money into something other than your
401k? You could have a Roth that is tax free when you take it out.
Of course you could directly invest and be one of those "rich
*******s" who exploit the capital gains laws.

yeah. money markets or T bills at 1%. thatll do me alot of good. in
10 years 1000 dollars will be worth 1100.

great.

OK You win. The world has conspired against you and you will die
living under a bridge and eating cat food.

the world doesnt have to. only the rich. and they've done it with
great alacrity

It is all Bill Gates' and Warren Buffett's fault.

Happy now?
