is estes still matching the 401k or have they stoped like alot of the other ltl compaines ?
They match a small percentage. They gave up the pension thing a long time ago. I know 3 people that retired from big E. 1 came back.
I know a driver who is looking to retire in a couple of years and has lost over 100k in the last couple of months. This driver has the best attitude I have seen about this. It was an inspiration to myself to try and be more positive about everything. OK enough of that I am back to being P.I.T.A.
No really just hold on everyone when it turns around we will be ok. I am not speaking from experience but from research. Investors who have taken a loss and bailed out of the stock markets never regain what they have lost while investors who stay in have almost allways made a rebound profit.
PENSION?? when did we ever have a pension,first I've heard of it.That must of been back when we were hooked up with J.Hoffa and co.They match a small percentage. They gave up the pension thing a long time ago. I know 3 people that retired from big E. 1 came back.
Lost over 100K??, I have been investing in a 401k for 28 years and have quite a substantial nest egg and have only lost 10,000. Your friend is doing something wrong. He needs to get out of single stocks and get alot more diversified.

100k in two months? That is surely not right...Maybe Turned you hit the O one to many times on this post, that would sound more in line of what I've seen happen to my 401K and others I've talked to...

Although the phrase a couple of has been well established in English since before the Renaissance, modern critics have sometimes maintained that a couple of is too inexact to be appropriate in formal writing. But the inexactitude of a couple of may serve a useful purpose, suggesting that the writer is indifferent to the precise number of items involved. Thus the sentence She lives only a couple of miles away implies not only that the distance is short but that its exact measure is unimportant. This usage should be considered unobjectionable on all levels of style.
I had to post this before to all I did was take from that link and put it here. Maybe you should chill out a little. If I had ten times the money in my 401k I would have lost 100k. My father in law who is only 47 has lost over 68k so far in this down turn and he is not going to retire for 20 years. So I can not imagine what he would have lost if he was about to retire.
sorry, East coast mentalityGI had a pension plan so we still have a pension for when we retire at least for now
ok ok....calm down geez.. :2lm16xk: don't be so touchy, I don't know what you think I do when you said
"someone who thought they were so much smarter than a truck driver" I am a driver. That's all I've done for the last 25yrs. as a matter of fact.
Hey if you say the guy lost that much money then OK, I just thought it sounded kinda high and that you might have hit the 0 one to many times by mistake that's all.
So don't bust a head gasket over it.
