Thought the same thing and while not knowing any personal details it isn`t fair to make assumptions even with a DUmmy.
However since it is a DUmmy it is a fair guess that they have the minimum taken out to get the employer match which likely means 2% of gross/year...a fewhundred bucks at most.
Financial planning is not one of their strong suits either as they all seem to be over extended with debt.
Unfortunately this is where I'm at. Right now I just can't afford more than 1%. Because we did an addon to the house we were re ascessed which doubled our tax.......which the county failed to notify me of. That has raised my mortgage $100 a month. No biggie, eventually I'll catch up.......................if I keep my job. The sales are looking pretty bad right now...................I'm worried.
