Local naive man Collin Blakeman blissfully contributed savings to his 401(k) despite the fact there is no future in which he will be able to use them.

    Sure, but be mad at vestment, not all 401ks have that.

      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

          Shit, you probably don’t believe in direct deposit either.

            That response doesn’t make any sense.
