How is your 401k going?

I am certainly thankful that I have that luxury where many do not.

I don't doubt the 8,000 at all. I've been trying to tell my father that it's going down to 8,000 at least. I'm not convinced it will go much lower.

I moved a ton of money into tax-free money market accounts and actually made money this past month. It's a very, very conservative move but maybe something your father should consider.

He's pretty evasive sometimes, but I think that's where he's got a lot of his money. He did say that he's got enough in cash to pay all the bills for 3 years, but that his 401k is crap and he'll probably have to keep working even if he gets a retirement offer/force out this year.

Man, that sucks.

I'm just about positive he's worked enough.

Good luck to you and your family.

Thanks, man. I mean that.

I really was hoping he'd just be able to retire. He works such long hours that he doesn't have time to take care of himself. Ever since I had to start taking night classes, I haven't been able to get him to the gym with me. Looks like that won't be happening any time soon.

Ah well.
