<prompt> Human: Hello rpersonalfinance! Ive been lurking for some time, but wanted to ask a general, as well as a specific question. 1 Despite some of the criticism Ive seen, I enjoyed Rich Dad Poor Dad. Any other must read books?2 I currently make around 60k, and save 450month. Save is in quotes, because its been going into a separate checking account for big purchases. Some of those have included unexpected medical bills thousands on an emergency dental job, and video camera equipment assets, in my opinion that I use for freelance work. I recognize that Im not ACTUALLY saving anything in a long-term scope. I was given shares in PRSVX around 6k 10 years ago, and they have done well, I think, over the years Ive been thinking of splitting my monthly savings into two categories: 225 into a big-purchase fund, and 225 into more shares of PRSVX. Is this a good strategy? What would you do in my shoes? Advice is much appreciated! EDIT: Additional info... no debt, 750 credit score, if it matters.Assistant: Hows your retirement situation?Human: MeloHallie, not sure what you mean. As I mentioned, Im in my early 20s. Quite a ways to go till retirement...  <response>: The question is still relevant. Let me rephrase it; Are you saving for retirement? Have you started thinking about how much you will need to save for retirement?Yes, retirement may be a long time from now or it could be closer than you think, if you are willing to make some sacrifices, but that doesnt mean you should be pushing it back until you get closer to retiring. Quite the opposite, actually.
