[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]My DH was raised by a single mom who made just enough money to be slightly above the poverty line. He started working full time when he graduated from high school. His brother told him to put as much as possible into the company’s 401k. He started taking college classes at night. Fortunately, work paid for them. My DH finally graduated with a BA when he was 32 years old and most of the classes were paid via work tuition reimbursement. I am so proud with how hard he worked to get his degree: working full time, taking classes at night even after having a kid - our DS was at his daddy’s college graduation. Until recently, my DH was not a high wage earner but finally, this past year, his salary was $200k. And starting that 401k at 18 years old and $25k salary has turned into $1.7 million at 55 years old.[/quote] Wow! That’s why you have to start some type of investment account for your kids early. It really compounds [/quote]
