I have to manage mine fairly close to both max out the contribution as well as the match because the match only happens if still contributing. Miss the old days when they trued up end of the year the remainder of the match but at least there is no max to to the match. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's the problem, I still have to be contributing to get the match so need at least 5% going in every pay check. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Some people fucked up didn't read the change and maxed out first or second quarter this year and missed out on 2-3 quarters match because they didn't read the docs. Esp bad given the mediocre year to date performance of the market. At least if the market was off to the races they might have made up for it.

Since then it's been bouncing in a range. Since the start of 18 it's been not doing a lot. Sure you could cherry pick times to make the numbers look good but trends not been anything more than mediocre over that period. It's not good, it's not bad it's meh.

Its been up and down, but 18000 to 27000 which is roughly what has happened since Trump came on, is 50% from where I come from. In less than 3 years.

The market under Obamas early years was returning to previous highs under Bush. Trump has had over 50 all time high market closes in that time and the longest bull market in history continues under his watch. Works for me.

The thing that is always overlooked is the number of companies, especially banks that went under during Bushes time that were no longer part of the market. Trump also has the advantage of trillion dollar deficits, and no spending caps or refusing to fund the government from the Republicans, and the Democrats are always willing to spend. Lets hope the bull market continues. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
