<prompt> Human: My boyfriend and I work for the same company. He is 26 years old. We live together and share expenses. As it stands we plan to spend the forseeable future together, and want to start a family in the next few years. As of now he has no retirement savings or plans and our company offers a 117 match on all contributions to the company sponsored plan up to 6 of our income. I am taking full advantage of this and maxing out my companys match to my plan. How do I convince my boyfriend to take his? He wont do it unless he really understands the benefit of taking the company match, and I dont fully understand the workings behind it. Thanks in advance. Assistant: Consider your future with someone who doesnt want to save for their retirement or get free money for doing so.Pretty clear he understands and simply wants to spend his money on other things.Human: Its not that he doesnt intend to save for retirement he simply doesnt intend to retire. he is stubborn as hell and literally told me he intends on working til he dies. Well, I dont, and Im sure our kids wont appreciate it if he works himself to death.  <response>: This sounds like more if a rrelationships problem
