Is it worth investing if I can only contribute $50 a month? - Lemmy.World

Assuming I have a time horizon >10 years.

As much as I hate to send you to Reddit, the r/personalfinance flowchart is hard to beat for most people. I’d recommend you start there to make sure you’re not overlooking something like your emergency fund.

This is awesome! Would love to see a version for EU too!

For the most part you can follow it. Pay down debts, save what you can, make a budget but it gets wonky when you hit 401K, IRA and healthcare

Problem is each country in the EU is different. What works for Germany may not work for the Netherlands or Denmark.

As an Aussie I substituted it’s and 401K with our pension equivalent called Superannuation. The healthcare is different in AU. Here in Europe it isn’t too different to AU, replace 401K and IRA are private pension or one offered through an employer.
