    How many of you degens are prepared for retirement?

    Do any of you vets have any kinda savings put away? If so how hard did you get hit in the last few years of the U.S. economy debacle? I know there has to be some of you guys who are somewhat responsible with your finances. I currently only got about 10k sitting in a 401k but I just started working. I keep reading articles on how all of America isn't prepared for retirement.

    Do you fall into that catergory?

    There are a few sharpies around this place. Not everyone can seriously be in the shitter. No way anyone's family would let them not have anything put away.

    Put away the max amount into a Roth IRA every year since I was 17. Portfolio ha taken some blows past few years but still should have a decent amount when I retire

    Nothing to do with being "sharp"

    I imagine less than 1% on this forum gamble as there main income, and if they do I'm sure they are fine for retirement.


    And for the people with jobs, Only retards would take out of their 401K to gamble with. So if you have a decent job, and contribute to your 401K every check, you'll have some money saved up.
