I had similar problem. Back in 2006 I knew the US was in trouble from all the debt (seems like nothing now - about 7 trillion!). All I had was a few crappy mutual funds in my 401K so I moved most of my money to the international mutual fund. I got hammered pretty good in the crash because the dollar went up.
Anyway after the crash I did some investigating and found that my 401K has a program you can sign up for that allows you to invest in anything you want. I don't think all 401K programs offer this but it's worth checking out. It's great to be able to buy almost whatever I want. Now I own individual stocks, mostly international and a couple of ETFs (oil and gold).
