Everyone got their raise. Did you pump up the 401k?
Time to bump up that 401k
I honestly can't believe the guys and gals who contribute little or nothing.

Most think that they can't afford to save - when in reality the IRS is taking their money when they don't save.
The money whores are the worst. If you make a 100k and can't put a few dollars away....then shame on you.
What kind of shape is your pension plan in?

Typical Americans though. Most spend more as they earn more. Usually more than they should. They have little to no disposable income. I was determined not to be one of those people. When I went full time I didn't end up with a new boat and new truck payment like most new full-time drivers do.

IRS will get their portion eventually either way.

They'll have to wait - they can have their portion when I'm in a lower tax bracket.

I used to be one of them..& as I studied & learned more about finances/ investing/ saving, I decided to start contributing 10% of my paycheck immediately. Just turned 28, I feel that I'm on a good path now..A few of the other younger cover drivers in my center, like myself, pretty sure they don't invest anything. It's sad.

Should I have gotten that raise even if I'm in progression?

Ok thanks! Can't wait until I'm top rate though. I'll probably increase my % once I get there.
