I agree GST, she's probably in the majority.

These stories of people being 100% in their employer's stock and losing 95% of their retiremnt savings are good stories for the media to jump on, but they are surely the exception.

In fact i remember on more than one occasion during the bull mkt reading stories about how many people in their 20s and 30s and 40s were being far too conservative and having too much of their 401k $$ in cash and bonds and not nearly enough in stock mut funds, given their age.

I guess they had the last laugh.
