would you rather have Social Security or a 401k for your reitrement plan? and why?


My thought is a 401k... I don't really believe Social Security is going to be there for me when I retire unless we keep increasing taxes. Plus where in the constitution does it say that other people should pay for my retirement? Besides I think I could get a better rate of return on my money than the government could with my money. That way when I die my kids will get my 401k money...they definitely won't be getting my Social Security money.

What does everyone think?
