> When you get a good job, someone will ask you how much money you want to dump into your 401k. You will probably say “none” because you are conditioned to believe that trouble is just around the corner This was relatable. While never having to support a family of 4 on 35k, I did have a period of my life where I was very broke on my own. When I finally started to climb out of my situation, I remember thinking people were idiots for putting money in a 401k. You can’t get it out if you need it. It took 5 years of stable employment before I actually started putting money into a 401k.
