      There are way too many comments in this thread for it to be okay that yours is the only one mentioning investing for retirement.

        And make sure you educate yourself on what colleges your kid is looking into. It sure would suck having all the 529 money get sucked into a scam school that generates debt for unexchangeable course credits.

    • Also, if you are technically self-employed, 401k + self-employed IRA provides a lot of room for more tax benefits. If you manage to fill those, then you can always open a brokerage account to put additional savings.

      Broad market index funds are a popular choice.

      Eventually retire so you have time to play those video games and get sleep.
