JOINING THE SA FORUMS WILL REMOVE THIS BIG AD, THE ANNOYING UNDERLINED ADS, AND STUPID INTERSTITIAL ADS!!!

You can: log in, read the tech support FAQ, or request your lost password. This dumb message (and those ads) will appear on every screen until you register! Get rid of this crap by registering your own SA Forums Account and joining roughly 150,000 Goons, for the one-time price of $9.95! We charge money because it costs us money per month for bills, and since we don't believe in showing ads to our users, we try to make the money back through forum registrations.

I am stupid
I work for an actuarial firm whose biggest client is CalPERS incidentally, I'm too busy right now to effortpost on it (and not sure how much I should really say) but uh, yeah...it's not very well managed. At all. It's downright aggravating. And it's also not unusual. Public (especially municipal) pension plans in general suffer from politicians figuring they can promise pension benefits now and someone else will be paying for them later; as a result they tend to be both very generous and underfunded.

The short version is, Roth IRAs are your friend. Start one.
