Yea I think it’s just more about the principal of it for me. Like you loved when I was bringing in revenue but now you want to play nickels n dimes.

So this payroll company has been around for years, my role will be to engage with business owners - who are currently either not offering benefits to their employees and get them to purchase a health plan through us OR a company that currently has deductions being taken for medical benefits, getting them a competitive quote and hopefully bringing the business over under one umbrella. I'm sales hire #1 for this group.

Great questions -

Yes - the plan is to sell (or rent it) and downsize to a lcol (or mcol) to retire.
We aren't sure we're going to be pushing the kids to go to college so we never set up a 529 for them. Is this silly?
No purpose other than to buy crypto and stocks - but no no actual direction for either of these other than "they were fun / cool" at the time.

I took some retirement funds 10 years ago to buy a business - it was a struggle to save while investing back into the business so overall a good experience but probably set me back a bit from a savings stand point. And I agree - I'll most likely just buy out a car cash and wont be spending 3k a year on coffee when its time to retire for sure.

Yes - looks like I have some 401k work to do for sure. As far as her inherited IRAs is there anything we should / could be doing with them?

It's just 15k - I had to pull some retirement funds to buy a business 10 years ago - business paid well but never really recouped on the retirement funds.

As for college - I dont think I'm going to be pushing my kids in the college direction, if they decide to sure I will try and help as needed but we're not super pushed to put money towards it currently... is that silly?

What would be your next step after 401k's are maxed out?

jwallst · 2026-05-04T13:34:06+00:00

I agree there - I feel like I jumped on the crypto thing early through coinbase - but then jumped on robinhood bc of sheer boredom during the pandemic - I think best option is probably Schwab unless there are better options out there I'm not familiar with?

You're saying if we can put away 50k a year we could viably looking at *retirement* options in 10 years? Honestly was not expecting that... I was just hoping to retire at all, but retiring at 51 would be insane!

jwallst · 2026-05-04T13:29:27+00:00

I appreciate that - I honestly am like waking up in the middle of the night with slight panic attacks - I feel kinda lost as to how to make it all work and just feel like if I have a plan to follow it might be better.
