Have you started saving for retirement?


I started a few years ago and I wish I'd started sooner but better late than never.

Same. Can't afford a house since they're half a million for a fixer upper, rent is insane as it is and gets more expensive every year, the price of everything is going up. I have a pension at work but I'll still probably never be able to retire.

Don't even bother at this point unless you own a home worth a mill + or something, cause the way prices are going up and how little you get from social security, no matter how much you save you are still probably gonna be screwed by the time you turn 60 or 70, unless they drastically change things.

Seriously, especially in the last few years, they have taken it from where you can live comfortably (not great, but comfortably on $1200-$1400 a month (double social security basically), to needing almost twice that unless you want to rent a room etc.

I can't even imagine where it will be in a decade when I can get social security (if it even exists then).

At this rate renting a room is gonna be over $1k most places in the next few years, which is more than you get from SS.....so yeah, good luck saving for retirment.

Retirement homes are also craaaaaazy expensive. I won't be surprised if suicide in septuagenarian+ people starts to skyrocket in the next decade. Or even younger than that.

I have a healthy pension plan that I contribute to through my employer. Aside from that, no.

yeah, the UK has some agreement with pensions and the US, so I'll have a 401k in the US and a UK pension. There's some complications where I can't really set up a Roth IRA, or make use of tax advantaged UK savings (ISA). Need to talk with some accountant to do more. Otherwise I just have the 401k, pension, and taxable investments (which I think also have some complications with living abroad).

Because you are suffering, and that is the only thing that makes me feel less miserable right now.
