Is it better to continue making retirement deposits or stop until the economy balances out?
All the money that goes in in disappearing, so why not use it for something worth while like paying off debts, for example?

No, keep going.

Never stop investing in your retirement funds and maximize your contributions every year, no matter what. If you dont you are only costing yourself money in the future. Just keep your account balanced according to your asset allocation and risk tolerance. Dont invest for the long term with a short term view.

Now is not the time to stop. For instance, GM is selling at a 50 year low...you will not be able to buy into some of these funds and stocks at this low maybe EVER again. If you aren't used to having the money, don't worry about it.

Short term the stock market is no good...but if you have a few years, than this is a great time to buy stocks...there are plenty of stocks that are way down due to this crisis, however it will not last forever, and certainly some of these companies will be back up in a few years...so if you can wait that I would say buy, buy, buy! Google is down from $700 some dollars to around $300 a share right now, and I can just about guarentee they will be fine in the future, this goes for alot of companies whos shares have taken a beating.

Depends on your time horizon. If you are planning on retiring soon or using the money soon, I would definitely say put it towards debt or even a general savings for rainy days.

If you are younger, I support using more money to save for retirement. Right now, stocks are cheap compared to the last ten years. If you think we can get the economy back to par or better than the past previous ten years and sustain it, you are much better off investing.

Also, remember there are many different investment vehicles to consider, from municipal bonds, to federal bonds/notes, foreign bonds, private bonds, stocks and CD/savings tools.

Depends on what you are depositing it in...Not everything is disappearing...The stock market is probably not a great place to put your money...

Maximizing contributions to ones retirement accounts does not mean that you have to be putting money into stocks or mutual funds. You can be putting your retirement funds into insured CD's or money market cash accounts.

Sorry to say, most of us would indeed, have been better off depositing into good old cash accounts for the past two years. And if we had even low interest debt, we would have been better off paying off, say, a 5% interest debt than loosing 30% in a diversified Mutual fund portfolio! Hindsight is perfect. That ugly scenario may be behind us. But nobody knows for sure, and better safe than sorry.

When unemployment rates start to drop by a tenth of a percent each month, and quarterly earnings reports of big corporations begin to improve quarter over quarter, with more earnings gainers than decliners, you can start reallocating your cash hoard into equities again.

If you can still afford to put money in your retirement I say go for it. Especially if it is coming out of your paycheck pretax (tax savings). The market will rebound. If you are close to retirement put it in a money market.

Now is the time to buy. Stocks have already taken a big hit. If you stop contributing now you will probably regret it.
