[quote=Anonymous]Some perspective here. $100K in a savings account is not small, it is huge - for a savings account. But if that savings account the ENTIRE AMOUNT of savings a couple who have both been working a few years has, then the amount does in fact start to look small, especially knowing that college expenses will come up, as well as an eventual retirement. You say that you are a tandem couple working overseas for the USG. That makes it easy to save, since your housing overseas is paid for. Consider getting another rental property here next time you are back. Or if you don't want to do that, at least diversify your portfolio. Instead of all in a savings account, put some good dividend-paying stocks for a higher return. [/quote]
