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


CC

When would any lender accept a 401K account as collateral?


since it's a standard part of a loan applcation. that's when

been renting all your life, i see

Capital gains is really a wealth tax.


nope. capital gains are income. sorry.

Say you owned an average company, stable but average in every way.
Worht $1 a share. Pays a constant 4% dividend. Some decades later it
is worth $4 but every you could by for a $1 is now $4, in dollars you
have 4 tiems as much but in buying power you are the same. Thus no real
gain other than the dividend you get.


you pay CGT on equities when you sell them. then they are income.

you dont know much about economics, do you?
and it's taxed at 15%. another example of socialism for the rich

Why do you have to worry about that? Are you at retirement age?


55. close enough. i worry because i'm shouldering the burden for the
rich. we bail them out. they pay lower taxes than i do. they dont
boost middle class incomes by wage increases...they do nothing for the
middle class.

america has the least equitable income structure in the western world.
it's one reason we're in the shape we're in

and tot he right wing, that's proof god loves the US

Maybe not by your standards, but by mine, Greenspan was a leftie. Caved
into Clinton and congress pretty good. He even admited he screwed up in
doing so.

You have one redeeming value. Reminds us all that stinking leftist
whining is a severe limitation to personal wealth.

Let me correct you, bpuharic was not up to the challenge, got greedy and
made bad investments or perhaps in debt up to his ass never really saved
more than $40.
