[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]OP, you're young, and I hope still have potential for your income to grow I would revisit pension contribution amounts - 14% seems high, especially with very tight budget on everything else. You need a bit more room for yourself to live now - vacation budget/eating out/hobby etc. It is easy to get burned out with all challenges of raising special need kids on budget, you need a to find a way and resources to recharge. [/quote] OP here. We upped the 401k contributions from 10 to 14 when I had to quit my job. DH is essentially saving for both of us right now so I still feel its generally low? (Would prefer 9-10 percent saved for each of us?) It is only matched up to 6 percent so perhaps there is a more productive way to save the remaining 8? Thanks for your imput [/quote]
