You know I'm starting to think buying more bikes - hundreds of them - in lieu of adding more to the 401K. I mean this would put more cash back into circulation, and if I can't sell them when I retire, I'll at least be happy looking at them riding them, working on them, etc. Maybe I won't mind being poor as much.
