From time to time people comment to me about my weird facination with the stock market and my unique ability to plan for retirement before I am 30… I don’t think it’s weird, I just think it’s good stewardship to have a simple plan for the future.
Here is an excellent article from CNN about "how to retire rich." Yeah, it really isn’t that fancy and you don’t have to be a genius. What you do have to do is simply put money away somewhere you can’t get to it incrementally. When you allow interest to compound over say… 30 years… dollars turn to thousands of dollars. It isn’t fancy, it is really simple.
The first step is to salt away as much as possible. Contribute at least
enough to get the full match — anything less and you’re leaving money on the
table.
