So, I'm a 30 year old electrical engineer living in Denver...
I started my career 3 years ago after finishing my Masters in Computer Engineering. During graduate school I had managed to build a Roth IRA account up to a little over $4000. But, I was in debt to the tune of about $32K in student loans. According to my trusty Quicken account, my total net worth in December 2003 was -$29K. But, with my new job I had the means to start paying that off and begin saving for retirement. So, at the age of 27 I started my "real" savings for retirement. During my few years in graduate school, I had managed to sock away some money and invest somewhat foolishly now that I look back on it. But, hindsight is always 20/20, right?
After my continuing efforts to grow my own knowledge in investing, reading countless blogs, and religiously tracking my finances in Quicken, I've decided to start this blog to hopefully help others with similar issues that I've tackled along the way.
