When it comes to retirement saving, there are a lot of variables to consider. But whether you're just starting to save or you're well on your way, it's important to make sure you're doing everything you can to ensure a comfortable retirement.

One of the best ways to do this is to start saving as early as possible. The sooner you start saving, the more time your money has to grow. And the more money you have saved, the more options you'll have in retirement.

Of course, how much you need to save for retirement will depend on a number of factors, including your desired lifestyle and how long you expect to live. But a good rule of thumb is to try to have enough saved to cover at least 80% of your pre-retirement income.

If you're not on track to reach this goal, don't despair. There are a number of ways to catch up, including working a few extra years, saving more each year, or investing in a retirement account with catch-up contributions.

No matter where you are in your retirement savings journey, the most important thing is to keep moving forward. Every little bit you save will make a difference down the road.

One of the best ways to prepare for retirement is to start saving for it from day one, that is when start making an income, you should make your exit plan from the day you get employed, this means you should be able to have a savings account where you keep money separately for the inevitable.

Another way is to get out of employment before reaching your retirement age and start your journey to financial freedom, this will be possible if you are very intentional about it, that is you start saving while you are working and you are testing out different business on the side that is trying to get a product market fit, and then going all in when you discover a good business.

There are also many more ways you can go about it but it all depends on how you plan it, retirement shouldn't be at old age only.
