Investment Methods

Prairie Eco-Thrifter

I pick up a lot of them at garage sales for 25 cents to a $1. My copy has a copyright date of 2008. When I retired, I used this method to re-invest the proceeds from my company 401K (that I had rolled into an IRA). Instead, they had to be sold within the 401K and the proceeds reinvested in the IRA.

The Frugal Girl

We bought our house as a short sale in 2008. I just wanted to get away and I moved my 401K money to the advisor they referred me to. The plan is for us to both retire around age 58 and move back to the small town where I grew up. We also love travel and plan on doing much more of that when we retire.
