This is also missing the comment where in none of those movies was the richest man in the world a good guy.

Plus a 100% tariff.

The current tarrifs for China are set at over 100%. Do you think these sorts of small companies operate with 100%+ profit margins?

Is that just the bubble 'porn' that went viral in the 2000's?

It disappeared now. When COVID hit I upped my contribution just to max out when the market was at a low.

The only way for the 401k to disappear entirely is if the entire economy is royally, never before seen fucked and completely collapses. At that point retirement if probably not a possibility anyways.

Any other situation you're essentially 'buying the dip' and will see the returns years from now. Although if you're looking to retire anytime in the near future it will likely be a huge hit on what you can take out.

Wife and I have started cooking and refrigerating a few cups of rice and picking a costco chicken on the weekend. With a few spices and sauces there's a crapton of variety you can get from chicken and rice with very little work to prepare and it's dirt cheap. Meals for the work week sorted.

The only reason they can claim about raising a family is specifically because the system gave them an huge amount of time to sort things out. But that doesn't mean the time is, or should be, indefinite.

For all the people literally being grabbed off the streets for a traffic ticket or an op ed article, a couple being given 21 years of litigation and almost 40 years of time here to sort out their status before ignoring the unfavorable outcome doesn't sound like this just dropped out of the sky.

So what should they have done in there intervening 25 years after receiving a voluntary departure order? Just hope it goes away or is never enforced?

"And so it seemed like the perfect time to allow packages to be delivered to my house, not ask what they are, and when I get the inkling they are illicit do and say absolutely nothing about. Nothing bad whatsoever could come from this"
