He must have really been chewed out the last time. He's behaving himself lately (unfortunately). A couple of times I was going to spar with him but changed my mind - figured it wasn't worth it.

After 30 more years you'll live it up for the year before you kick the bucket.

What's the matter. too cheap to invest in the 401k and get a 55% return on your money the day you deposit it?

Had to "un"ignore you for a minute feeling you'd say something "smart"
Oh I take full advantage of my investments of 401K, made a ton in 08 due to great choices(until FDX changed options and most suck these days)
However FDX should NOT call their pension a PENSION... it's more like a parting gift, retirement gift if you will, because unless you were fully vested with 20+years before they switched from Tradition to Portable... the "Pension" is nothing like a Pension at all.
Oh BTW you're back on ignore, don't waste your time..
It will be fine

I'll assume you're talking to the old man. I've never been able to leave someone on ignore before, I enjoy a good argument. I put him on ignore and it is so much better and I don't miss his posts at all. So much negativity.Had to "un"ignore you for a minute feeling you'd say something "smart"

Pensions are all but gone in the private sector. Honestly I'm surprised public sector unions are still bargaining for them. States piss away the money that are supposed to fund them. I'll take my money up front please.

Once again a ignorant post by someone who knows nothing.The Vanguard options offered in our 401K are excellent. Primecap, windsor , wellington etc are all great funds to be involved in. Many have had close to 20% return lately over the last couple of years.Had to "un"ignore you for a minute feeling you'd say something "smart"

BTW. You are a maroon. Open up a financial website and research these funds.
20% over the past couple years? I call BS. Post the ROI graph please.

Since math doesn't seem to be your strong point I will do the math.
That equals OVER 21% average return over the last 5 years. Not bad for a fund that maroon said sucked.
This place is full of idiots who don't know how to research a mutual fund. No wonder people complain about being broke. They must think putting their money in a CD is a way to gain wealth.
Guess you will call Morningstar a biased news source.

No. I'm surprised it had such a good return.
Why in such a crappy mood? The numbers are on your side. Don't be a d*.
Btw, Obama was good for that fund!

I call BS on that statement. LOL
Your numbers say they I'm right. Or is Morningstar a biased news site?

Help! I'm being underwhelmed by the relevant posts by Nolimitz and others who wish to discuss purely industry-related topics.Is there any forums out on the web for politics? I thought this was the home for UPS and it's competitors to discuss issues related to the industry. The FedEx area has become a-hole for inane politics.
BTW- forums is plural. It's Are, not Is.
The forums he is describing have been moved to the "current events" forum where anything goes as far as wild speculation, conjecture, and hearsay go. That nobody notices is just commentary on how little it really mattered. Look to the "Fedex Forums" for what remain Fedex topics.Help!

It’s actually a little better than that fund as it’s the Admiral class with lower fees.
