    Definitely some form of financial illiteracy which is certainly unfortunate but not to the detriment of all 401ks

      it kinda is in that 401ks should not allow that pro job / anti worker bullshit

      it’s crazy how we as a society allow all that obvious gatcha type rules just to help rich fucks get richer

          oh for sure I agree with you and it is likely his own fault but I do sympathize with his frustration

            How is adding money every paycheck to an account with the promise of it being there later my fault?

              depends on what part you are upset with

              stock selection, interest, market fluctuation, vestment dates or withdrawal age

              you’re being so purposely obtuse no one has any idea what you are complaining over
