[QUOTE="Benben, post: 1106194, member: 25133"] My tactic is start Jan at 3%, pay off Xmas (I have 2 kids) then start ramping up. Its March I am at 7% (4%in 401K and 3% in the Roth, +3 % in the after tax that [I]I[/I] plan on rolling over into a broker account next January) My plan last year and this year: Each pay raise bump at least a %. When peaks hit (both vacation peak and X-mas peak) and our checks go higher, bump again. My Goal is be at 20% by Dec 25th. Last year I was 2K shy of the 17K max contribution limit. If you increase your contributions when your checks get bigger you never, ever notice the increase. Just something to make you think. [/QUOTE]
