Retirement Plans
Just curious what everyone does. DH & I both just changed jobs and set our new ones up and were trying to decide what to contribute.

Re: Retirement Plans
I have a SIMPLE so I do the max, $10,000.
Do as much as you can afford, you will be really happy about it later in life. Plus, doing more now, means even more compounding which is a good thing.

I don't know if you listen to Suze Orman but she recommends if you can't afford much to only do as much as your company matches. That is what I do and even though it is not alot, I have a small chunk so far.

Re: Retirement Plans
yes exactly even if you can do the minimum esp if your company matches this it will be well worth it when you retire!
