Why such dourness? Bernstein ticks off plenty of reasons: meager savings rates, dreadful portfolio decisions, outrageously expensive plans and potentially lower stock market returns in the future.

Well, if the stockmarket is lower when I retire 30-some-odd years from now than it is now, I think I'll have bigger problems than my 401k to worry about. Like space aliens and all the giant insects roaming the earth....

Right now because I'm young, I'm invested very aggressively, but I'll start changing allotments as I get older to cut down risk...

Glad you responded my friend. I didn't know too many New Mexicans had 401k's. It is such a backward place, I'm glad I left 12 years ago.
