[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, if someone had given you this advice when you were younger (and they probably did), what would have made you listen? There are so many cautionary tales like this, and a large segment just thinks, "that won't happen to me." [/quote] DP, but both DH and I listened to that advice and started saving early. We were able to start ROTHs for each of our children when they started earning money in their teens. 401ks and IRAs became more available in after we started our careers. I understand both started in the 1970’s, but there were few options and more restrictions then. I did start a traditional IRA when I started working, the max was $2k then. At 59 and 62, we are in decent shape. [/quote]
