Some people put like 8%-20% of their paycheck into it and also get company match so it's natural to want to check all of the them, I haven't checked this year because of the economy. --- https://i.imgur.com/71J7IXn.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

You can check it as much as you want but by nature the short-term fluctuations are completely pointless to worry about or obsess over unless you're approaching retirement age. If you're 30 years old and the principle of your investment is down then you have 30 years for it to go back up. In fact, in theory you should prefer it being down earlier in your career so that you buy in at lower prices. With that being said, I've heard horror stories of people who have no idea what they're invested in and never looked at their 401k for years or decades and discover it was sitting in a money market account the whole time, missing decades of compounding growth. So you should at least check it enough that you don't do something like that. --- http://i.imgur.com/dzGMd.png ... Copied to Clipboard!

Unless you are retiring soon, checking is largely pointless. How you fund your 401k shouldn't be based on its current balance, only what your personal retirement goals. --- *Gheb is my other account* ... Copied to Clipboard!

I probably check mine twice a year, once when my company sends out year end account summaries and usually once a year on my own out of curiosity. --- Quick to judge, quick to anger, slow to understand. Ignorance, prejudice, and fear walk hand in hand. ... Copied to Clipboard!
