If you trust some 401K plan operator there is the mistake. Might I
suggest learning how to invest it yourself?

gee. let's see... i work for a living. it's known as opportunity cost.
you dont know about economics, but look it up

Takes years to get
reasonably good at it but the payout 10 years down the road is quite good.

uh huh. if that's the case what happened to the 14 trillion wall
street lost in equity over the last 3 years?

ah, yes, the latest on my company 401K

Dumb investor is what Occam's razor would say.

Canuck's investment portfolio is up 4%, or 40 cents...Canadian.

Hey, he's RICH beyond his wildest dreams!!

Sort of, it was a good week last week, $35k++. But admit, last week was
good. Capital gains too, sweet. And you? Pretty bad when my accountant
called me up and asked me why do I work... and you are still looking for
work.

You're a congenital liar. You haven't made $35K in your entire life. You
don't have an accountant, unless you count your right hand when it isn't
busy with other things.

You wouldn't know "reasoning" if it bit you. Feel free to laugh, but try not
to mix it with tears.

I would say lethargic, but lazy will do. Many like you waste time and
energy blaming Bush when you should be learning how to manage your own
money.

Sooner or later you will realize Bush and Obama are just chess pieces on
the board game called life. All you have to do is figure out how the
game is going and profit.

Too many people also drunk on debt. Including government.

Here is rule one of being truly "rich". (as opposed to paper tigers)

1) Get out of debt as fast as possible. Debt, especially if misused is
evil to your wealth.

You wish. Keep voting Obama, as it helps keep those democrats screwing
up the economy for my profit.

Look at this one, wouldn't it have been sweet to be in at say 75 cents
to $1.25? see the little jump at the end?

http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=U...=0;logscale=on

But too late for this one. But a lovely ride. See October/November
low, that was when Obama looked like he was going to win and did...
sweet. So did I. And only one of many... Oh-bama!!!

My family does. But outside of that you are 100% RIGHT! And I realize
that. Same can be said of you, provided you treat your family right.
No one cares about other people, sure, lots like to think so and once
and awhile you really do find one that is a nice human being. But I
know you haven't matured enough to that level.

there are 100,000,000 americans who arent you

get used to it

Aren't you what? Cat got your tongue?

Oh, you mean 100m taxpayers... that are not me. Yep, 100m individuals,
all like rats a scratching for the cheese. Amazing actually how it works.

Keep running on the wheel, around and around it goes. No raise in 10
years and down 10% in the last year...wow...you should re-evaluate your
attitude and tactics.

gee. let's see... i work for a living. it's known as opportunity cost.
you dont know about economics, but look it up

So do I and? Is it lethargy or what? Maske the freaking time! It is
all about priorities. Look at 7 Habits and time management. And plenty
of evening courses for accounting, you don't need a degree, just enough
to read a profit and loss statement, balance sheet and a few others.

Takes years to get
reasonably good at it but the payout 10 years down the road is quite good.

uh huh. if that's the case what happened to the 14 trillion wall
street lost in equity over the last 3 years?

Have you been to Vegas? The odds are a hell of a lot worse down there
as the house gets a cut which in play+time will always run you dry. The
markets are zero sum plus dividends.

So? As you pointed out, that ws for the most part, 99.99999999+% of
others peoples money, just created some real good buying opportunities
for the savvy and prepared.

The market lost the trillions as the ecomomic outlook of debt,
government overspending, big mouth talk, lower earnings, higher hidden
costs, bailout corruption gone mad, eventual higher blood sucking taxes
sucked the system down. That is why it is called a depression.

But a depression, if you know your history right creates some wonderful
buying opportunities.

A clasic of 1929...but the last 2 years...

http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=^DJI+Interactive#chart1:symbol=^dji;rang e=2y;indicator=volume;charttype=line;crosshair=on; ohlcvalues=0;logscale=on;source=undefined

Over the new hill, shudder, the market is changing direct downwards...
the infamous double dip.

Classic...

And if your broker or fund manager isn't into this, fire the idiots. As
if you were say 50% in cash on Feb/Mar 2009 and bought in hard, then
started selling back earlier this year...you would be well positioned
and well above 2007 levels.

http://finance.yahoo.com/echarts?s=^DJI+Interactive#chart3:symbol=^dji;rang e=my;indicator=volume;charttype=line;crosshair=on; ohlcvalues=0;logscale=on;source=undefined

And it is free, right under your nose. The last chart shows the 1932
double dip from 1929's drop.

Under Obama, history will repeat as Obama didn't take much "American"
history and thus doomed to repeat.
