Savings rate.

Well- you know who pushed him on that.
He doesn't save a lot as he is does not have a high income, but he puts enough in the 401k for the employer match and a little into the Roth each month on automatic. Unfortunately, he didn't start the 401K until quite a few years after he started the job, but at least he finally did it.
