There’s a new chart up. I’m down ever so slightly. The only thing rescuing that is the fact that I’ve adjusted my stock holding to something close to correct. I hadn’t realized I’d been socking away so much money into company stock through payroll deductions. Since $2K represents about 10% of my retirement assets, I’m going to put less of my money into company stock. I’ve changed my payroll deduction down to 1% and now have more money for debt reduction.
Life is what it is. My retirement accounts are still growing through regular contributions. I’m sticking with things as they are. My company matches a really healthy amount, so I’m putting away about 18% of my salary each month and unlike some other companies out there, my 401k matches are going to continue through 2009. But I won’t take it for granted. I’m getting a bonus in March for 2008 performance, and I’ll be putting some of that away into my 401k too.
