I only techncially have a high school diploma.

Went to college but did not finish my degree.

I have saved in my 401k since I was 23. I am now 54.

$408,000,000 accumulated.

I know its not enough to retire but heck for a HS diploma I should do OK save the govt I do not trust......

The degree has value if you can support yourself with it.

In contrast my niece is in Medical school, my nephew, 27 has a PHD in Environmental Engineering and is one of 5 worldwide expert on a certain code...very proud of them but they had scholarships too.

I don't have kids but encourage many friends with kids to consider trade school.....

To paraphrase: If you can't stand in front of it with an AR-15 and defend it, you don't own it. (See MF Global) Nice job. Protect yourself.

That’s pretty good for a 401K. ;-)

You can’t afford to retire on $408 MILION?

Where the heck do you live? On the moon?
