Just started my job two years ago out of college - have my Roth 401K set up for a 10% contribution but money has been getting a little tight and I am living more “paycheck to paycheck” than I would like (understood it isn’t really paycheck to paycheck). If I pause on the contributions for ~6 months will this really screw me later on down the line?

For context there is about $20K in there currently and I’m 24.

My partner bought a new truck earlier this month. We’re hoping to joint-purchase our first home next spring. Is there a “best” time to get pre-approved for a mortgage? When should we start the home buying process?

So far we’ve kept our head in the realtor apps to see what the market is doing.
