  and the fact that he has $102 million in his IRA despite a contribution limit of $2000 per year for the entire 15 years Romney ran Bain

  Doesn't everyone?

  $102 million after 15 years with max contribution of $2000/year!!
  That's incredible!!
  I used to place tiny classified ads making $30 a week in thousands of newspapers all over the country and I could never do anything like that!
  He should be on TV advertising something like a seminar on how to make money by doing seminars.

  Romney is just AMAZING!!

I always thought you could contribute what you wanted, but the tax decuction is on only the tax permitted amount

Romney's TOTAL net worth was reported at up to $250MM (depending on valuation of illiquid assets).

Do you really believe 40% of it ($102mm) is in IRAs?
