I hope this question doesn’t come off as stupid but anyways... I’m 21 and just started my actual career, my parents were never good with finances and I don’t even think they have a retirement plan. that being said, no ones really talked to me about finances so I have to learn it all on my own. I want to be really smart with it so I’m trying to do my research but there’s a lot info. so can someone explain it to me like I’m a kid lol? I figured that would be a good start. like do I just put money into that bank account? how much should I put? what does it mean when a company “matches” it? what happens to your account if you quit that job? any other advice would be helpful
edit: I wish I can thank everyone for taking the time to answer, I appreciate it so much!! I’m still going through each reply and it’s been so helpful
