$300 for a Fuji diff? Dude... that is an amazing deal already! Madwi wouldn't sell you his for that price. I paid $300 for my knockoff.

Even still, I'm lucky if I can earn$pend $20 these days. Jar won't give me a part time job. ��

Plus maxed out my separate IRA account. I was dumping over $30,000 a year into my retirement fund.

Chit adds up fast. Do it if you can afford it. Once you do. You will not miss the money in the budget.

Yup. I started a bit late since it took a few years after college to find a decent place to work that offered these kinds of benefits. So once I was offered a 401k plan, I maxed it out the second I spoke with the rep. Haven't looked back since.

Some chirashi for lunch

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.

Yup. Doing the smart thing. You'll be far better off in the later years. I should look into an IRA. It's on my to-do list still. HSA is chugging along. I just drop $10 in weekly. I should increase that just to be on the safe end since all these fun medical things are now popping up.

Your company sounds way better for benefits. I only get 3% matched. But you become fully vested with the company after being here for 5 years. I only have a year to go, so that is always good. Can take it wherever I go.

I planed for the future.
I put a lot away for retirement.I was ready for early retirement.Then after 35 years of marriage came the divorce.I live in a state where they do not split 50/50.
The judge can decide what is equitable.Then throw 30K of lawyer fees on top of that.
Life goes on.
