I got a job offer recently (tenure-track) so I'm finally in a position to really start thinking about the future. I'll be moving across the country in June and I have a few goals for this year. Age: 31 Goals for this year: 1. Buy a car (will do in May) 2. Get married (will do courthouse this summer and celebratory party next year) 3. Max Roth IRA. (Done!) 4. Continue maxing 403b 5. Max 457 in new job 6. Slowly save more for house down payment (need maybe another $10-20k, although I won't look for houses for another 2-3 years at the earliest) Hamming Cube fucked around with this message at 15:36 on Mar 30, 2017 |

Thanks! It's a pretty aggressive savings plan. We'll see how much I can save for down payment if I'm maxing out both 403b and 457. One of those might have to give, but I'd at least like to max out one of those. Also, girlfriend is considering grad school so that could require even less saving. Things are very up in the air!

EAT FASTER!!!!!! posted:When you say "maxing" you mean taking advantage of the full tax advantage space of $54,000 (403b) + $18,000 (457)? No, I meant 18k + employer contribution (403b) and 18k (457). The 18k + employer contribution definitely wouldn't get up to 54k. Isn't that the max I can do a year? Maybe I should've just said contribute as much as I can.
