A quick but exciting update. I officially have more in my 401(k) than in my emergency fund. This has been a bit of a goal of mine.
Every increase or promotion- I increase my retirement contribution. It really increases twice. Once because I'm making more money so at the same percentage it's still more. And then again increased by upping the percentage.
It's still not a lot, but it's a start. I have to remember about the time I asked J$ how much I needed to retire....he advised just to start saving and go from there.
