@DividendDudeYT In my opinion, getting that employer match is a MUST. It is literally an immediate, guaranteed 100% return. Who cares if it happens to cost you a bit more in taxes down the road? Fine, call it a 90% guaranteed immediate return. That’s still better than any other investment. Past

@GuyTalksFinance Many start families far earlier than they'd like due to lack of sexual education and lack of access to abortions, so a 17 y/o finishing high school may be stuck in minimum wage Or someone who just moved here from another country with little to no prior education Or graduated
