@_itsornella: I always think of this as a temporary move to help you get your house in order today so that you can comfortably enjoy retirement later. The goal isn't to stop forever, but you have to be intentional about cleaning up your current financial mess. #retirement #investing #buildingwealth #payoffmydebt

You can’t (or maybe shouldn’t) invest in your future if you’re drowning in the present

Agree 100%. I did this a few months ago without even thinking about it, and I’m making some good progress paying off debt.

I agree. You have to stop the bleeding first. If you can contribute to at least the company match, then fine. If that's too hard, stop the bleeding first.

Yes yes thisss I took a pause until I was stable and had at least 3-6 months saved in my savings, saving for retirement just made zero sense if I was still struggling in the now.

She’s right. I paused contributions towards retirement until my job matched and saved $10k. I have resumed my contributions now though.
