Savings is good. The more you save, the better it is for you and your family. If you can’t pay for something, don’t buy it. Your ultimate goal should be a comfortable retirement for yourself and college for the kids.
Excerpts from the article on CNN
The Aquinos live by a simple rule: “If we can’t pay for something, we don’t buy it,” says Liz, 34. In the eight years she and Tony, 36, a systems engineer, have been married, the couple have socked away more than $400,000.
The Aquinos read stories about hot funds and grabbed them up. As a result, they are now sitting on a hodgepodge of more than five dozen [that's way too many] once-popular funds, many of which own the same stocks.
Some strategies the Aquinos can follow:
- Diversify portfolio
Follow the rule of 100 when investing
- Trim portfolio
Dollar-cost averaging – a key to success when investing
Take an active role in rebuilding your portfolio
- Roll over old 401(k)s
