re: Here's how much money you should have saved at every age

After having my first child at 28 and another at age 30, these goals are fairly aggressive for my wife and I. We are probably a few years behind but once the kids are out of daycare and into school, I should be able to catch up pretty quickly. $14K per year in daycare is a SOB.

With REI, 401K's and other investments, I should be plenty caught up by age 40, if not greatly exceeded.

These are very good goals for single or newly married couples to try and get to, especially if you have good jobs and no kids early.
