      Their only investment assets appear to be via state pensions, including teacher pensions.

      He also retired from the Army, and likely has a pension from that too.

      I’m shocked he doesn’t have an IRA (unless that doesn’t count). Given his previous jobs, it passes the smell test that he doesn’t have a 401k.

      I’m sure his pensions are invested in a wide range of stocks and bonds, but he doesn’t directly hold them.

        Military/feds have TSP, it’s essentially a 401k.

        If he was 20+ years military reserve he’s got a lot in there. I think he started in 1981 tho. And I’m not 100% sure how long tsp has been happening

      He did 20 some years in the reserves or guard.

      That means he has tsp money, it’s the government 401k essentially.

      I mean, he might not, but it’s incredibly rare not to have tsp especially after 20+ years of service.
