Bruh, it's pretax dollars in an account that 9 times out of 10 out performs interest rates. Even in huge downturns, it will bounce back thanks to stock market goes brrrrrrrrr
I must have hit that 1 out of 10 shot. Bro.
If you tried to use it in like 2009 then ya. But if you kept it until now it would be doing great.
Obviously it's doing "great". That's why I'm saying what im saying... Seriously? 2009?
If you're saying you're that 1 out of 10, then you made it sound like you lost money. Now you say your 401k is doing great? I'm sorry, I don't understand the point you're trying to make.
And yes, 09 was a shit show for 401ks/market value.
What are you talking about? I never said it was doing great. I airqouted it, man. I'm done with all of this.
What if you only invested at market peaks
