Investing in a 401k

If you leave the money alone a year, what's safe? If i'm ont leve it alone three years, what’s safe? I oint leave alone ten years. And here's the interesting thing. The number of times you actually would have lost money is less than three % of the time. So that's why, at 61, as a risk of ers person, i'm very comfortable when i have a long term time horizon investing in something like some conservative, very easy going, boring mutual funds and get rich quick.
