[QUOTE="browniehound, post: 422050, member: 4653"] TB, I have to disagree. The teamster 401k investements are not "very,very limited". My girlfriend has about 5 investment choices (with names I never heard of) in her 401k with no self managed account option. I would call this very limited. The UPS-Teamster 401k plan has at least 10 options I can think of off the bat. They offer index funds (SP500,400 and Russell 2K), cash (stable value), bond-funds, an international fund, and then the Bright Horizon funds that changes its investments as you get closer to retirement, i.e. Bright Horizon 2015, 2025, 2035 funds. The UPS-Teamster 401k plan also offers the "Self Managed Account" in which you can purchase just about any stock or mutual fund. You may not be able to buy gold directly but I'm sure you could find a fund that invests in gold 100%. Am I missing something here? How can these options be described as "very, very, limited"? It looks to me that most of the bases are covered in our 401k plan. Please clue me in to what is missing here? [/QUOTE]
