[QUOTE="purplesky, post: 614977, member: 23628"] Thanks UPSTATE but I am really focused on putting away as much as possible in my 401K and the W-4 issue is not what I am talking about. You can put away $16,500 in 2009 so thats alot of deferred income that can avoid taxation for now. Im not asking for investment advice but I am just curious what other UPSERS are doing for retirement. I am more of an aggressive investor with a 80/20 mix of stocks/fixed income. I have a 11 to 18 year retirement window so I feel ok with that investment allocation. If you dont feel comfortable giving advice thats fine but if anyone wants to chime in they should. I doubt anyone on this website really expects to get investment advice. Like I said I am amazed that more people dont take advantage of the 401K with the pension issues of the near future. If you work alot of overtime and UPS drivers do it makes sense to defer as much taxable income as possible. Atleast the money you defer can hopefully get a 6% to 8% return. [/QUOTE]
