Is a 401(k) Really the Best Way to Save for Retirement?
This last one is quite interesting.  The reality is that a lot of people are not disciplined enough to save outside of a 401(k) or 403(b).  I am also not sure that in 20-30 years ole Uncle Sam and all his minions in Congress won't go after ROTH IRAs either.  I think people need to make the best decision based on what is easiest to do to ensure they are saving a lot for retirement, keep expenses low and be prepared to weather storms.  Hmmmm...sounds a lot like life.


Enjoy!
