Is This Silly Mistake Keeping You From Retiring Early?
It's been said before and will be said again: Investing for retirement doesn't have to be hard. In fact, building a comfortable retirement nest egg can be more about what not to do than it is about what to do.
The last thing you want is to make a silly mistake or two to keep you from retiring early. The No. 1 thing not to do is put off investing for retirement, followed closely by not taking full advantage of your 401(k) or employer-sponsored plan.
