I think "there's really not much on the line" and "take a tiny risk" are consistent.
We have solid health insurance (not like the top plan), but no 401k contributions and therein lies the "risk" I refer to.

- solipsism 7y agoThat tweet is downright cringey. It's incredibly myopic to tell people you don't know that they're wasting their time working at one company vs another. You basically need to think you know the meaning of life... everyone's, not just your own. Read the replies to get a dose of reality.
- ericd 7y agoPersonally, I would much prefer a company that offered a match that allowed me to get the full 401k amount pretax ($56k) over one that offered the equivalent in salary. Might want to look into it. If you don’t have a 401k at all, you should really look into it. Time in the market, and all.
