I dont support self directed just for that reason, the markets at the mercy of speculators and blind judgement makers wich is why my mothers 401k has lost $20k over the last month or so.

I think mine lost that much today.
 
We are such a reactive country instead of a proactive. The government will dibble dabble and babble for many years to come on this subject.

I voted to deal with my own. I do not trust the government to do the right thing.
