How much do you guys have in your 401k and how long have you been working? Trying to see if I'm saving too little or saving the right amount.

Should I be maximizing contributions to only my employer’s Roth 401k (all $19.5k) or should I be splitting the max between Traditional 401k and Roth 401k with varying percentages (i.e. 12% to Roth 401k and 8% to Traditional 401k)?

Have anyone done contracting negotiations before? I've interviewed for co A & B and co A extended an offer today. The offer does not meet my current salary.

I’m trying to get into tech as my degree is in Information Systems. Any advice would help!

Investment gurus recommend significantly lowering stock exposure after 40. What’s the rationale. they say protect your retirement. why so early? Nobody had decades long recessions since the Great Depression (2008 was less than 2yrs). Why not stay at 90% stocks till 5yrs before I retire? My wife is employed too, so there is that fall back in an emergency.
