Save My 401(k)
In 2013, tax reform will be on the table in Congress. Everything will be on the table, and one area that is getting serious consideration is cutting the benefits afforded by 401(k) Plans. This is a very serious threat to the primary way Americans save for Retirement. I encourage any regular readers or those of you who occasionally stumble upon this blog to contact your congress person and encourage them to "Stay Away from Your 401(k)".

Obviously, I echo your thoughts. Did you know that 401(k) Plans currently provide tax incented savings to approximately 60-65m Americans? Harming a system that has been proven effective as one of the "legs of the stool" is very short sighted in my humble opinion. The cuts that have been proposed would harm everyone, not just the wealthy. It would reduce overall savings for those that are covered and it would reduce coverage as fewer employers would offer these plans and many employers who currently offer a plan will consider terminating them.
Savings is, by far, the most important factor in contributing to adequate retirement income. Anything that disincentivises savings contributes to a future where elderly poverty is common. That's just unacceptable to me.
