a toast to health

My co-worker was telling me that she doesn't want to put money in her 401k, because we can't take it out until we're 60. I urged her to reconsider. Our company matches 100% of what we put in plus it's always good to have many eggs in the retirement basket.

Then I said, "60 is not so far off. I'm already 30 so I'm halfway there."
halfway there

and then it struck me, there are more important things that I wish I'll have as I get older. Money is good, yes, but health truly is wealth. I have not been taking care of myself. If I were a car, I have not gotten any maintenance! But this has to change and it will, one baby step at a time. It's about establishing good habits.
