wall street just keeps giving it to the american people...and taking

If you trust some 401K plan operator there is the mistake. Might I
suggest learning how to invest it yourself? Takes years to get
reasonably good at it but the payout 10 years down the road is quite good.

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.

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.

but he's white and rich. obama's black so that's where your hatred
goes

not a single 401K manager has beat the market in the last 3 years.

First of all, YOU and all participants are the managers of of 401K plans
within what is offered by your company.

Go to the link below and plug in "Up more than 0%" for the 3 year return
option of the screener. The other entries remain in the default setting.

http://screen.yahoo.com/funds.html

You will see that there are many funds that have a positive return over the
past three years. I'm sure some of these funds are available to some 401K
plans, maybe not yours. So a smart 401K "manager" would have had an
increase. And that doesn't count the companies contribution.

Trading all the time you spend ranting here on the internet for
learning to invest would get you quite an education.

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

your own limitation. If you think like a loser, you will be a loser.
