Hi I'm Tom, 51 married with one child who is eight years old. I'm 7 to 10 years from retirement. I waited 6 years after high school to go to college, so I started my career late, then I got married at 40 and started my family late. So it's probably good that I can retire on time. I was probably 2 years closer to retirement before the recession, but lost my job and spent a big chunk of money not working for over a year. We live in Southern California where housing prices are ridiculous, and we just bought a house last year which cost much more than we wanted to spend. I'my interested in learning how to plan and control expenses better, as well as learning what I don't know about planning for FI.
