Should I park my whole 401k in international stocks for the next, oh, 30+ years and call it a day?

So, your benefits can decrease just like a 401k.
If it’s a common good, though, meant to help those most in need right now, then it’s a promise to fulfill and not an investment.
FYI, I already know I won’t get as much from Social Security as previous generations. My kids will get even less.

It’s hard and agree on so much.
Can we change the language, though?
I hear a lot of people saying “I paid into Social Security, I deserve it.” I want that for everyone! But I feel like if the language becomes that it’s a 401k equivalent, then the Dogers can compare it to the market.
