But everyone should be in their Companies Employer Matched funds if they are available..

When I worked , my company matched 10% and they also had a profit sharing program...

FREE Money. Plus I had them taking out 15%...Over a long period of time ??

Add to that having no consumer debt like Revolving Credit Card balances, or Car loans.

Then add to that a mid 3% Mortgage on a home you can afford ?

Then live within your means and have Investments on your own ?

Of course a high paying Job would be nice but not needed.

I may not be rich, but I am comfortable..
Ahhh but you are rich Michael ...we are in the top 10% in the world if all we have is one apartment/house, one car, and one computer.....not to mention our pot bellies lol...
