Episode notes
Prefer Roth Contributions With Employer Match
- Contribute to a Roth 401(k) even if employer matches into a traditional bucket because the match is free money and grows for decades.
- Also keep some liquid savings and consider a Roth IRA for investment choice and liquidity.
Start Saving Now, Even Small Amounts
- Start saving immediately, even if it's a small amount, to build the habit and compound returns over time.
- Prioritize employer match and funnel side‑income heavily into tax‑advantaged retirement vehicles.
Spend Every Dollar Intentionally
- Spending every dollar intentionally gives each dollar a purpose and reveals wasteful habits.
- Treat savings and investments as deliberate 'spending' decisions to enforce financial order.
