PRIOR PLANNING PAYS ™

Part 2 of 5: 20s & 30s

Planning for retirement is a lifelong process.  Be on the lookout for your age for steps you should be taking right now.  And remember, everyone over 18 should have a living will.

Your 20s

  • Pay off credit card debt and college loans.
  • Contribute the maximum amount to your retirement plan.
  • Don’t have much money?  Don’t worry.  Time is on your side.  Start saving now!
  • Invest in growth stocks and mutual funds.  You can afford the risk.

 

Your 30s

  • Buy disability insurance to protect your paycheck.
  • Open an IRA – Traditional or Roth.
  • If you get a bonus or an inheritance, save at least 80%.
