8 Financial Goals You Should Reach By Your 30s

5. Invest In Your Retirement

Although it may seem like retirement is so far in the future that it will never get here, you’ll be surprised just how quickly it all happened when you are looking back from the north side of 60. Seize the opportunity now to do things like starting a 401k account. A lot of employers offer very generous retirement plans where they are willing to contribute significantly to your future. Don’t make the mistake of putting that off and figuring you’ll do it in a few years. Procrastination is definitely not the approach you want to use when it comes to retirement.
