I hope you all are enjoying your weekend. Instead of writing something new for all of you, I thought I would group a few of my greatest posts together for all of my new readers. I may be the only one that feels this way, but I have a feeling that many young adults experience a lot of uncertainty when it comes to retirement planning.

It’s not only light-years away from coming to fruition, but there are other variables as well: market volatility, future earnings, children, pets, cars, where you will live, etc. It makes it almost impossible to know exactly what you need to do to prepare for retirement. But, the crucial difference is that this uncertainty DOES NOT MEAN that you should just ignore it until you have a better handle on your future. Start investing now, and invest as much as you can without jeopardizing your finances. That’s the short answer, but here’s a closer look at what you need to know when it comes to retirement planning.
