Planning between 32 and max 37 (depending on how investments/market performs). I am 25, started working this year. Will save aggressively, not give in to family/societal pressures of spending, invest wisely, and have moderate lifestyle after retirement (expenses 25k per month in present value terms). Let's see how it goes, Excel says it's possible.

Thanks a bunch!

I have $100K liquid cash over and above maxing out 401K, HSA, College fund, investments in Index funds and emergency fund. I plan to leave $25K for contingency. Of the $75K is it wise if I purchase I bonds worth $30K (myself, spouse, kid)? Current combined rate is 9.62 Does anyone foresee the interest rate drastically reducing? I don’t intend to cash them out before 5 years.
