&gt;Does anyone feel that this might be stretching it?<p>After that thread a few days ago where everyone here thought that &quot;62% of Americans Have Less than $1000 in savings&quot; meant that 62% of Americans voluntarily forgo a savings account in favor of more lucrative investing techniques, no, I don&#x27;t think this is stretching it. I think it&#x27;s an enlightening and necessary reminder.
