[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]There are clearly some things that you can do to tighten your budget. I would use this as an opportunity to take a hard look at things, sell what you can/don't need, cut where you can, reduce overall and find a way to continue contributing to retirement. If you do this now, you will be setting yourself up well for the future. If you take the easy way now, and just continue doing what you're doing and get rid of retirement, I think you will eventually regret it. S[b]elling a car would be a good place to start and should net you a year's worth of retirement contributions from a depreciating asset[/b].[/quote] Unfortunately, that may not be the case. If we sold a car, it would have to be the truck. But, the truck is actually a salvage title, so would probably be pretty hard to sell given the title, and we probably wouldn't get very much at all for it. I am still pushing my DH to look into it though. [/quote]
