I don't contribute into my 401k even though there's a employer match. Instead I buy LINK and BTC. Based or retarded?

Retard. Free money on your 401k matched by your company into a market fund that will generally return 8 percent year over year and instead you bought a premine from a fat 30 year old Russian scammer and a perpetually crabbing decades old project that's going nowhere.

You should do the minimum contribution to match anon. It’s free money. I contribute 15% to my 401k and company matches up to 6% iirc.

If the majority of midwits contribute to 401k, then you absolutely know it's bad financially.

Well I have my reasons.
First of all I job hop frequently so I will never see the employer match anyways since they claw it back if you aren't there for years.
Secondly I don't feel like giving money to the (((money managers))) at Fidelity so they can use it to enforce butt sex black supremacy scores or whatever.

Contributing to your 401k is not a big deal if you make at least 6 figs, which clearly you don’t. Even contributing 15% to it, I still live comfortably, and buy $1500/month in crypto and eat Doordash premium Goyslop every night.

Are you seriously saying not planning for retirement is based? Even if you have the discipline for your own portfolio, you’re gonna pay out the ass for taxes, instead of having it in a Roth and not paying taxes when the time comes.

Idk anon. I get literally free money from my company and I get tax savings on my wagie wage. Seems like the dumb thing would be to not use it. Sometimes things are so obvious even brain dead normie cattle know it’s a good deal.
