At this point I'm just ignoring my 401k and hoping time in the market makes up for this fuckery....
Just keep contributing the same amount if you can. Best case scenario you are buying low and it will go up a lot in the future, worst case is money is not worth anything so it doesn't matter anyway. Unless you are retiring in like, 5 years, then you might be fucked.
Yeah, this is pretty much where I am right now. And no, I've still got 2-3 more 'once in a lifetime recessions' to live through before I retire, which is why I'm ignoring it. That's future spooky's problem.
