Afternoon folks! Today I was the first one home from town. It gave me time to make an amazing steak and potato dinner for my dear husband. Usually he is already here and I walk into a chaos of tears from the young ones wanting to know if I brought them something from town. With the help of my microwave and my nu wave oven I had two rib eye steaks and two potatoes cooked within 5 minutes of his walking through the door. Granted the corn came from a can but it still hit the spot for a guy who spends the days working on our house or one of the adult children's home, or some one elses car. He rarely complains but he hardly ever gets a home cooked dinner on my work days.
Today I discovered that one of my retirement accounts needs to be rolled over or cashed out because the company where it was from sold us to a new company. So this is a big decision to be made. In the past I have just taken the money and pretty much blown it. This time I would like to do something a little more productive towards my retirement. It won't totally pay down my DPP with the military but it would make a sizable dent. Or I can roll it over and hope it grows for a while.
After talking to the representative I am even more confused...retirement funds are not for the timid. I want to get rid of my debts but I am not sure I have the strategic where with all to not use my credit cards on a whim. I have things on a schedule right now to be paid off, not quickly but faster than paying just the minimum.
What would you do faced with a retirement decision? Cash out? Sit tight? Take part and save some? Let me know in the comments and thanks for stopping by!
