If I claim any higher then I'll end up owing at the end of the year. I'd rather get something than owe anything. Plus it's like free money. I get what you mean about the government sitting on it, interest free, but it's really not that big a deal to me. My retirement is pretty solid, medical insurance for life and I'll be able to retire at a relatively young age with very close to what I make working so a big investment portfolio I can retire on isn't as important to me as a "normal" person.
It sounds like you've positioned yourself very nicely for retirement. Well done!:)
The investment potential of 1 or 2 thousand dollars isn't that big a deal if it doesn't bother you. I just know some people who don't realize that they can adjust how much is taken out of their paycheck, so I figured I'd bring it up just in case.
