What about other investments like 401k's and cds etc.

[Sean Gallagher]

Im curently 19, in college with a full time job making alright money; at my age i guess you could say :mrgreen: . Im also always looking toward the future making sure I have everything under control to come.. For instance if rei doesnt come through or starting my own business doesnt work out I can still look toward my degree in college. Well I've been thinking.. i know i probably wont need a 401k but it would be nice to have a little something extra pop up in the near future, I dont have much experience with this stuff and I understand its not fast money like most of us like to get here.. but it seems like a good idea to me. can anyone help me on the subject? im 19 and could put away 500 a month easy. ( unsure what the 401 k would be a month) i think there's some for 1mill then 2 mill? I dont think my job has it ( i havent asked either) but if I go to my bank? maybe they do but also Im thinking is this the best place to go to at the same time. Id like to start early guys... :D
