The Fool’s Take on Retirement

Erik Folgate

Motley Fool gains my respect more and more every time I read an article from their website.  They are wise when it comes to investment.  They are even more wise when it comes to saving for retirement.  This article

is a must read for twenty-somethings.  The columnist outlines the secret behind retiring early.  This secret is no big surprise, but it is commonly overlooked — Save, Save, and SAVE more!!!!  Trying to “beat” the market by picking the right stocks is never more important than contributing more money to a retirement plan as a young investor.  This article gives a great illustration of the savings involved by cutting back on every-day small luxuries that we take for granted.  Pinch a penny, and you might be grabbing a wad of cash in the future.
