If you think about it, a company's 401(k) match acts just like crossfire injection. What's that, you ask? The best way to answer that question is to show you, not tell you.
Remember that Z-28 I alluded to a couple of months back? It's one of those rare Camaros that has this thing called crossfire injection. When I bought one in 1983, I had no idea what the term meant. I'm not sure I know what it means even today. All I know is that it sounds cool. And it works even cooler.
Here's how I would use it. Let's say I was comfortably cruising down some country road counting the passing cows, when I come up on a farm tractor moving at snail-like speed. If you're like me, you know how frustrating this can be. I naturally nudge towards the center line where I discover I've only got a short passing opportunity. If I don't pass this oozing molasses in front of me right away, I'll be stuck behind it for several more agonizingly slow miles.
