"In the richest country in the history of the world, a secure and dignified retirement should be available to every American, not just the extremely wealthy."
I’ve always made decent money, so admittedly it has been easy for me, but my first job, on the advice of our security officer (of all people lol) I immediately put 10% of my income into my 401k. So I went from making no money to 90% of what I had negotiated and learned to live on that. Every raise I got, I increased the amount so my raise was smaller, but my savings larger.

This is how you make it work.
