Not all, unfortunately.

But that's one sign the economy is improving a little bit.

Unfortunately, as the article goes on to state, many employees aren't getting the full match because they're not contributing enough. That just shows how hard-hit many families' finances have been.

Just talked a co-worker into getting the company match at a minimum. dkf Dec 2011 #2

That's a wise attitude. Someone that doesn't take the match is leaving free money Common Sense Party Dec 2011 #3
