Eden Revisited
#076: Should we have 401(k)s on this side of Eden?
The crew wonders aloud whether they should have 401(k)s. (Full disclosure: They all have one or some variation thereof!) They wrestle with the principle of saving, profiting off of suspect companies, and how to invest in real relationships rather than just a healthy return. Are 401(k)s a legitimate way to make money, or is it some form of (black) magic that's too good to be true? The Edenic armchair philosopher-economists might just be left scratching their heads.
