Drafted Kurt Warner in his first NFL season/
(Some of the others in my league snickered, at the time)
Yes, I won the League that year, on Kurt's shoulders.

Bought the ex-wife out of her half of the house when we divorced. It cost me an arm and a leg, but I was able to maintain some stability for my kids growing up and I will have it all paid for in 5 years. Because of that I should be able to retire at 58.

Ouch...you got a ways to go then.
Edit: Some unsolicited advice...one of the smartest guys I knew, told me that the best time to start planning for your retirement is right now. I was slightly younger than you when I heard that but it was sound advice then and is still true today.

This is BS. You cannot say something like that w/o posting actual pics. For shame on you!

It would be nice to start saving for retirement if you had a dime to save! I have for as long as I can remember, always saved my money. I don't spend it on stupid crap. I hate shopping, and have no need for a bunch of "stuff". Yet, all I want is to be able to live in my own place and save for my retirement. *heavy sigh*

It will get better. Young couples rarely have much to save and student loans are a bitch to pay off. The big thing is to get out of debt first. I would focus fully on that and pay that debt down as quickly as possible. I'm no financial guru, and I have been through plenty of hard times, but getting out of debt is key, and that will free up your income to start putting a little aside for retirement.

She could just kill my wife. I get my retirement taken out of my check
