    Default o/t: 401k accounts....

    ok found no better place to put this, as the bank thread was about a month ago. Now that everything has melted some more i found out i lost about 2k in my 401k What are you guys doing with those accounts? obviously I'm not 65 and i think there's an extra penalty for under 25 which i am. How are you guys dealing with your 401k's? I'm thinking of cashing out rather than staying until there's zip left. Hopefully this crisis can be contained...
    i think the tax is about 30%-40%

    Dude, it's money you won't need for 40 to 50 years. The losses you took now won't mean anything then. Stay put and hang tight.

    How am I not myself?

    I feel sorry for the people who would be retiring this month.

    But hey, think of it this way- at least you didn't have an Enron pension!

    And maybe its easier to withdraw from life
    With all of its misery and wretched lies
    If we're dead when tomorrow's gone
    The Big Machine will just move on
    Still we cling afraid we'll fall
    Clinging like the memory which haunts us all

    Agreed, if you want a pension that will be harder to be taken away, work for the gov.

    Benefits for even low paying teaching jobs are actually pretty decent, although even that's not a sure thing anymore.
