Absolutely not.I'd never try t tell someone what they should do with their money.
My point in saying that the 401ks took a beating was to prove that pension systems took a hit just as the 401ks did.For some reason,some folks actually beleived that they(pensions) had remained untouched.Everyone got took in my opinion.
