That's not even slightly true. The only differences between a regular investment fund and a 401k are that you don't have to pay income tax on the money you put into a 401k it and you can't withdraw your money before retirement without substantial penalties.
Never said they were special. But they are (generally) regulated securities, unlike pensions. Regulated securities have many layers of protections.
