80 hours. I don’t want to die in my Middle Ages of a heart attack because of work related stress. Me and my coworkers are hoping that our company soon goes to a 4 day work work week and brings down weekly hours to 32hrs. It will gives us more time to spend with our families and cause us to have less work stress.

80 hours a week! I wanna retire early. Oh please

Does anyone mind sharing how they are saving for the future? Or just securing yourself? I have stocks/bounds, 401k, regular (1) savings/ (2) checking, about to open a self found Roth IRA.

Any advice on things to expect (or not expect)?
