[quote=Anonymous]If we all saved more earlier in our lives, this would not be a problem. I'm not calling anyone out because I should have done the same. We've been fed an untruth about how to raise a family while working. Basically, it's not possible to do both to the level most of us want. For some reason, part-time work in my field resulted in a MUCH lower hourly rate than if I worked FT. So, I had to keep working FT. But here's the thing. I could have saved more earlier in life. I didn't know what I didn't know. If we had been more aggressive savers earlier, then we'd be retired by now. I plan to share these lessons with my kids, so they have more choices and can prepare earlier than I did. [/quote]
