    1. It doesn’t need to be 15% right away
    2. Use the power of time

    The trick is to set aside something, anything, no matter how small, to start. Then whenever you get a raise, set aside part of that so you will never have seen it or spent it.

    Your most powerful weapon is not how much you can set aside now, but how early you can start. Investments over the length of your career can turn a little into a lot. Get started now, no matter how small, and use time as your greatest weapon.
