I'm 43 and I'm not too happy about starting over. Things that are going to get us ahead are our honesty, reliability, our credit, and our intellegence. My work record and all these other things has gotten me my dream job offer. Between pension, IRAs and tangibles I should be ok if health holds out. the co i work for now got rid of pensions .and now is out sourcing are jobs to china.instead of building on to are co.they bought a co in china.and now this year we will be up for contract in the union.they only have gave us a 50 cent raise 10 years in the past .the cost of livening goes up more than 50 cents a year. now they gave us insurance that we pay 50 a week .the company i work for is doomed.i too have had 23 jobs now and i have my dream job but the days are ticking down to job 24. Had to look at your profile to see where you were from. Sounded like we work for the same company.

They can't outsource my job. They gotta put that toxic waste somewhere. I say washington dc. But that's my opinion.

Put the bulk of 403b in a fixed fund, low interest, but guarenteed. Did that last Aug 07 when the market was getting hinky and we filed for divorce. Monthly contibutions are minimal now, but going into previous funds, cool now that they are selling for much lower.
