Hey, I really like this article. I have been hearing a lot of information about using your companys 401k plan and how it can be detrimental to your savings. I agree with you 100 percent and I’m glad you wrote an article about this because it is something many people are unaware of. However, what plan of action do you recommend for avoiding these hidden coasts? What about if you don’t know much about stocks?

Thanks!

Yup, these morons didn’t manage their money & they are feeling the pain… now everyone wants MORE gub’ment handouts to get themselves out of the trouble that they created.

sorry, i have no sympathy.

Thankfully, my score goes right back up after big payments are made.
