[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I max out now for two reasons. 1. Time in the market is the ultimate advantage for investing. A front-loaded investment strategy will (nearly) always result in a far higher end-balance as compared to a long-term DCA strategy even if the invested funds are equal in amount. 2. I know I have investable funds now; I don't know if I will tomorrow. [/quote] Same here, especially no. 2. You never know if you’ll always be able or want to work, so I’ve maxed out every year since I started working. Occasionally I think about the extra great vacation I could take if I cut back contributions, but I always go back to thinking I could leave the workforce for any number of reasons and need to save while I can.
