Quotes to ponder:

"Too often, people just have whatever their employer provides to them, which is usually equal to their salary. The bad news is that if you need to provide income to dependents, this won’t be enough."

"One of the biggest investment mistakes I see is having too much in company stock."

"Just as we don’t like to think about death, we don’t like to think about having to spend time in a nursing home someday. But if we live until age 65, the odds are more likely than not of needing long-term care at some point in our lives."
