The discussion was about the government looking at seizing 401k’s and 403b’s and some here said they were tempted to just take out themselves vs. letting government take it all.
Yes, it would be crazy, but, I’d take the money and do with it what I wanted vs. the government telling me how much of my money they will give me each month after they stole it.
If they can just seize your money, wouldn’t you think some cash strapped local and state government would have already have done so? They can tax the crap out of you, but can’t just seize it...
