The First Thing You Should Do in 2020
The 2010s have come to a close, but they were very kind to many people financially, as the stock market recovered from the worst recession in 70 years and core unemployment fell to extremely low levels. Yet as we begin a new year and a new decade, most of us still have more work to do to reach our long-term financial goals.
Whether you intend to stop working entirely when you retire, or just aim to reach that age with the freedom to do whatever you want, you'll need to start working toward that target early, and keep at it steadily.
One of the best things you can do to get yourself on track is to open an individual retirement account -- and if you haven't already done so, now's a great time to get started.
