  1. Financial professionals should be required to handle our retirement money with the utmost care, putting investors’ interests first.
    But that type of care comes in degrees, and deciding exactly how far advisers should go has been the center of heated debate for nearly 15 years,
    pitting financial industry stakeholders, who argue their existing regulatory framework is enough,
    against the U.S. Labor Department, the retirement plan regulator, which says there are gaping holes.

    The issue has re-emerged as the department prepares to release a final rule that would
    require more financial professionals to act as #fiduciaries
    — that is, they’d be held to the highest standard, across the investment landscape, when providing advice on retirement money held or destined for tax-advantaged accounts, like individual retirement accounts.

    Most retirement plan administrators who oversee the trillions of dollars held in 401(k) plans are already held to this standard, part of a 1974 law known as #ERISA, which was established to oversee private pension plans before 401(k)s existed.
    But it doesn’t generally apply, for example, when workers roll over their pile of money into an I.R.A. when they leave a job or retire from the work force.
    Nearly 5.7 million people rolled $620 billion into I.R.A.s in 2020, according to the latest Internal Revenue Service data

  6. I still have to get back into my phloggersGarage, but I just got to #erisa's section on what a software individual actually is. Instead of having computer programs, erisa makes lisp USB techno-cognitive people that join the community (basically erisa and older siblings). Erisa makes the considered choice to use serialised text file storage on the USBs when they're not awake rather than sbcl cores, though at the moment I'm inclined to go the other way. These *must* live >=years to grow and learn

  14. If you have #LongCovid or #MEcfs and are considering filing a long-term disability claim, this white paper by my old lawyer, Barbara Comerford, is a must-read.

    Barbara has been helping people win lawsuits against insurers for three decades now.

    She took my case against Prudential to federal court & kicked their asses so hard the judge wrote an absolutely scathing ruling against Prudential that set some precedents.
