It reads"Solid Gains are possible today, but with a headache." I guess trying to understand why you waited so long to save can be exausting for the mind. Thanks for the encouragment. Big Jake and the family. P.S. We got us the hook up 5years ago, makes a big diference. This is funny, I’m reading your blog and opening a fortune cookie at the same time.

We are on the same wavelength. Astyn and I had our beginning-of-the-year "financial review" at the start of January and the major change we made to our finances was to start saving for retirement. I was skeptical of the idea, given that we are in graduate school and have no money, but when we used the retirement financial calculators provided on providentliving.org (also available at any financial website), we discovered that the amount you must save every month for retirement increases drastically every year you delay the start of your savings. So, we're saving now. We are basically counting on not having social security and not having any pension, so if we don't take care of ourselves for retirement, no one will. Keep the fiscally responsible advice flowing bro. I will be your V.P. of Fiscal Outreach Relations. EZ Yo dog. We are on the same wavelength.

Like, where EXACTLY should I put it and who do I talk to to put it there. If you've done the homework, may we please take the easy way out and copy? Thanks. Yes, I will take more advice.
