8. Opt Into 401(k) Contributions
Your company likely offers a 401(k) plan which you should definitely opt into. More and more companies offer these instead of pensions and in addition to a high-interest account, you should definitely start looking into these if you haven’t already.
Not only that, but you also have to make the most out of it! If you contribute the max employer match amount you’ll essentially sign up for free money while you’re with that specific company. The money compounds, and since it comes out of your gross pay you won’t feel a dent while boosting your savings! It’s a win-win situation that we urge you to consider.
