Agreed, at least you have a chance to beat SP500... and after halving, who knows...! One can't touch it until the ripe age of 65 or whatever the age is now (105?...lol) but still better than "stonks" methinks... Hate to say it that is "safer" because in that world nothing is, but your chances are better to keep it in FBTC than Apple or whatever, plus one gets that small kick from the employer... Lesser of two evils I guess. YMMV as always.

I had a few bags in a few of my Roth's that I liquidated last week. Bought up some FBTC this morning with them. I'll just leave them be for the next decade or two and see what happens. Instead of retiring to a cardboard box behind the liquor store, maybe I can upgrade to a cardboard box behind a Goodwill.

That's a taxable event though, no? Or your "hopes" calculated that in?
