What are you doing to set yourself up for retirement?

[jaydawg08]

And what age do you plan on retiring?

Spin off from that thread about how federal/govt employees are mostly the ones who’ve retired and been well off in their old age

Do y’all have a TSP/401k account and are you actually contributing? Do you get matching and how much do you plan on having by 50-60? Pension? Plan on working until you die because you’d be bored without it?

Curious what people on this forum have planned for their future

I contribute to a TSP at near max, have a pension after 20 years or 50 years old whichever is first, am able to pull out early SS due to my career, and then plan on eventually trying the real estate angle

I don't plan on retiring. Warren Buffet still out there doing shyt everyday and he doesn't have to.

Mainly just contributing consistently to 401k and Roth IRA. Plan on increasing contributions as income grows and investing outside of that. Not 6 figs 6 certs yet

This seems like a pretty common response from people I’ve talked to

Investing in my 401k and fighting for social security by not supporting Republicans. I hope to retire at 67 If I'm lucky enough to be alive.

How much worn are most people actually doing ? Most people do a few hours of work a day at best.

They're still working, and are on a company clock. Warren Buffett is a CEO figure.

Because managing 130 Billion in assets is light work? Companies dedicate multiple entire departments of people to do that.

This is my point. He's not the entire department. That department reports to someone who reports to someone who reports to him.

I'm probably between 30-40 more paychecks before I can retire.
