But it *is* easier to whine in lower case than to take responsibility for yourself. |

You are obviously suffering financially yet you still think the Dems are on your side? |

Many like you waste time and energy blaming Bush when you should be learning how to manage your own money. now the right wng blames 100M americans...not the rich folks on wall street...in spite of the fact it was wall street NOT main street that sucked 14 trillion out of the economy in the last 2 years 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. gee. buy low. sell high. what a genius Too many people also drunk on debt. Including government. the reason middle class american is drunk on debt is we havent had a pay increase in 10 years. middle class wages havent increased in 10 years as the rich took ALL of the productivity increase in the last 10 years for themselves and gave NONE of it in pay increases. that's why the middle class isnt spending you mmoron Why don't you drop your ISP and get another job, eh? |

I'm not confused. When I was working the 401K I had options to invest in. There was a group of mutual funds, some government obligations and a GUARANTEED interest option. If you, THE MANAGER, selected the guaranteed interest option you would not have lost a penny in the last three years. Or "I" could select a single mutual fund for my money. If you work for a company that makes these choices for you, maybe it's time for a new job with more liberal selection policies. YOU are the MANAGER within the selections offered by your employer. Well said. The key is to choose your investments based on your risk level and projected retirement date. Certain income funds are just as productive as money market funds. The NAV will vary - even drop for a while, but you are adding shares through reinvested dividends. |
