Good call. Started mine late as well, it wasn't even offered at my previous places of employment. I'm up to 10% of my income going in, incrementing up. My employer matches up to 5%, plus provides a bonus yearly (bonus is equivalent to all other cash bonuses I've received which is... a lot of money). I also have a Roth IRA, and HSA set up. It's a lot coming out of my check but fortunately I can do it, and my wife is doing pretty much the same with hers.
