The same rules apply to all retirement programs including 401k's IRA's Social Security private pensions and VA benefits. Retirement benefits are lien proof. Been that way for a long time. Ever wonder why OJ still has money. All his funds were in retirement programs. If your entire income is from retirement programs and your home is homesteaded even sears can't get any money from you. Even if it is cash in the bank. Makes you wonder why they loan money to the retired.
