      Was mainly making a cynical joke. That said, my 401k probably does represent the largest gain or loss I’ve had in a week or month; probably even a day, given how wildly the markets can sometimes fluctuate.

        Sure, but daily changes in account value are not money lost. Sry for being too serious but there’s something about characterizing responsible financial planning as gambling that annoys me.
