[QUOTE="brett636, post: 855652, member: 249"] You can stand by what you wrote. I'm just pointing out that you admitted to making bad decision after bad decision over your working life, and now you have come up with an even worse idea but you want us all to believe its the answer to all our problems. Its kinda like if I was a bad businessman and had several failed businesses in my past, but now I want you and everyone else to dump their life savings into my newest idea because I just know its going to work this time. Saving for retirement does not require one to be a "corporatist", but simply a prudent human being interested in being self sufficient for the remainder of their life and even leave their heirs something afterwards. Consistently saving and investing over your entire working life can generate great rewards when you finally decide working for a living isn't for you. I'm 29 and I know social security won't be there for me, and my pension may or may not be there for me depending on future events, but I know my 401k will be there as long as I continue to stuff every dollar I can afford to in it. Myself and most reasonable people cannot make the connection between what your advocating we should do and what will happen if we do it. I just believe your a desperate person who has not been as prudent with your finances as you should have been just to now realize that you don't have enough as you near retirement and hoping you can talk others into a similar situation. As I said before goodluck with your 401k idea, but remember the only person you will be hurting is yourself. [/QUOTE]
