My first post simply stated I believe such amounts in the article are insufficient for a retirement if depending on a 401K+SS alone. My following posts in regards to some quoted scripture is sometimes people use it to justify their own envy and that rich or poor neither makes you better in the eyes of God.

You recent post still makes no point relative to any of my posts in this thread. Where have I ever stated it is not the Lord’s? What was your post in response to as far as what I posted?

Rich people are not inherently evil, poor people are not inherently good, money is not an inherent evil, the love of money is the issue. We are commanded to be charitable AND we are commanded to be wise stewards of the same resources. Surely you can see a balance in that?

Perhaps you meant to post to another since my post ( https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/4266470/posts?page=92#77 ) was to round earther's comment (as seen here https://freerepublic.com/focus/chat/4266470/replies?c=3),

In any case, I think the first principle of investing is a scriptural principle as I advocated and explained.

For an investment philosophy, I find the Boglehead view to be reasonable.
