When it comes to parenting, every parent wants their kids to be better off than they were (at least the good ones!).

Whether this means encouraging them to work hard and apply themselves in school, or giving them the life opportunities and experiences they never had growing up, the ultimate goal is to raise a healthy, happy, well-adjusted young adult who’s ready to leave the nest at an appropriate age (read: before they’re 35 and have lived in your basement for 15 years).

By  Jen Smith  Staff Writer

For some of us, 30 minutes seems too long to wait (especially if it’s lunchtime). But if you’re thinking about retirement when you’re in your 30s, you could be looking at another 30 years.

That’s because at 59½, you can start withdrawing from your retirement accounts without penalty and at 62 you can start taking partial Social Security.

But those days can seem far off, especially if you’re in a job you don’t love and have too many cities unchecked on your travel bucket list.

If you’ve decided you don’t want to wait until your 60s to retire but don’t think you make enough to retire early, then keep reading.

Finances Not Helping Your Anxiety? 11 Tips to Help You Breathe Easier

By  Carson Kohler   Staff Writer Penny Hoarder

Honestly, who doesn’t have anxiety these days?

Even if you haven’t been officially diagnosed with an anxiety disorder (ahem, me), you probably still experience tinges of That Dreaded Feeling. That swelling of panic in your gut, that flush of hives across your chest, that looming paranoia you can’t quite place…

As a nation, our anxiety levels are rising. In 2018, the U.S. national anxiety score (yes, that’s a thing) was 51 out of 100 — a five-point jump since 2017 — according to the American Psychiatric Association. Among our top concerns? Health, safety and — you guessed it! — finances.

Yes, some folks might call it irrational or unfounded. To you — and me — it’s totally real.

The good news? You can address these fears. (Much easier than addressing those fears of heights, roaches or commitment, in my humble opinion.)
