<p>[QUOTE="Dockbumper, post: 11425937, member: 300911"]I started this career at the ripe old age of 56. I had a specific plan in place. Live in the truck, run a ####load of miles, bank my money. I have been doing just that for 5 years. I hope to do it for 4 more years.......at least until 65. I should be able to retire comfortably. If you are 25-35 years old, give it 15- 20 years, save and invest to the best of your ability. You will be in better financial shape than 80% of your peers. How bad do you want financial security? Make it happen.....good luck![/QUOTE]</p><p><br /></p>
