<< don't you work at M$? >>


yeah but i dont see the connection between that and my 401k.

 

[GooberPHX420]

aww leet man I wanna work at m$, what exactly do u do there? Im looking for a job where I can sit on my ass all day and say "yes" or "no" and get paid roughly $10billion a year like bill gates. Any job openings? I have a great background in internet surfing and forum posting.

isnt the 401k like the company's pension plan? sorry, I'm not familiar with 401ks at all.

there really isnt, unless the company puts 99% of their own stock in the employee 401k. see also: pulling an enron.

the money is divested, and obviously ameesh got lucky and managed to irk a kickass ROI.

My equivalent plan is sucking big time right now.

Congrats to you, man.

My 401K has been sinking deep since I put 100% into S&P 500 (in my previous company, back in 2000-2001) Still waiting for its recovery so that I can transfer it to a different one.

 

[StageLeft]

My 401k has no company stock at all...

--

GooberPHX420 Hmm, I hope you don't believe that.

 

[SuperTool]

I am pissed at myself for not buying more stock when the market opened after 9/11. There might not be an opportunity like this again for a long time.
Anyways, I too am happy about my 401(k)
I wish my Roth IRA did that well
