[quote=Anonymous]I got my first big corporate job at 21 right out of undergrad, my salary was $50k plus generous bonuses and I kick myself that I never contributed to the 401k they offered WITH A MATCH. I left thousands on the table that I instead spent on drinks with friends and clothes, I finally wizened up 5 years into the job. Now I'm turning 40 and have 13 years of retirement savings rather than 18. Stupid. I wish someone had pulled me aside on day 1 and told me to put as much as I could into the generous 401k program, looking back at what I would have earned in those 5 years I didn't invest would have moved my retirement timeline up a few years. Now I occasionally try to help educate the youngsters out there to not be as foolish as I was.[/quote]
