Would Allowing A One Time Limited Amount Withdrawal From 401k Plans Without Penalties Be Helpful To Economy?

In the present economy, what would be the impact of allowing folk a one time withdrawal from their 401k plans without the penalties to pay down debt, catch up behind payments, do home repair or to make targeted purchases to help stimultate the economy. I’m thinking a maximun of 20% of their present balance. And write into law that this can only be done during national emergencies and only in 10 year time spans.

Of All The Investment Strategies, What Would You Say Is The Best?

I love this type of question. But you may not get the answer you want.
There is an old saying: If you don’t know who you are, Wall Street is an expensive place to find out.
Another old saw: There are people with 20 years of investing experience and there are people with 20 one-year investing experiences.
Corollary: The best investment strategy is the one best suited to your temperment and goals, borne of continuous experience and mistakes.
The “best” investment strategy in the world is rife with risk if it exceeds your tolerance for risk. I have seen excellent investment plans go awry as investors, who were never really comfortable with the plan, sold down to their sleep level (i.e., where they could sleep at night) at precisely the wrong time. Conversely. I recall talking to an 80-year old lady after the crash in 1987. When I asked if she had sold any of her holdings, her reply was, “No dear, I never sell wholesale.”
Priceless.
Investing is a journey, one where the traveler spends years figuring out what investment approach works best over market cycles (any market cycle … real estate, stocks, gold, etc.).
Therefore, my advice, worth what you’ve paid for it, is to begin learning who you are and then finding the investment approach that best suits your temperment and knowledge.
