THE NEW RULES OF RETIREMENT SAVING • 117
For my daughter Rebecca’s example before, that would mean:
Yes, that's a lot of money. But now you know the strategy that can help you get there. The Power of Now The number above stresses how important it is to start saving the right way now. Not a year from now or when you get around to it, but right now. Today. This week. This month. Decisions, especially financial decisions, are easy to put off. But look at your number. You may have a long way to go to accumu- late that much money, and you don’t want to depend on contribu- tions to reach it. You want to depend on compound interest and growth.
