There may be good reasons to load up your 401(k) with company shares. After all, stock-picking gurus Warren Buffett and Peter Lynch have always counseled to buy what you know.

Further protection against bullets is provided by two Small Arms Protective Inserts, ceramic plates weighing 4 lbs. apiece, which are slipped into pockets on the front and back of the vest.
