Total finance noob here:
I work in the education system. I am 26, and have been in the same district for 6 years. Between what I contribute and what my district contributes I am end up putting about $350 into a PERS account. I don't have the money to do this now because I am a custodian with a wife and two kids, but Im almost done with school and will be teaching in a year or two. When that happens, my income will double.
Should I look into other retirement options as well? Or is the PERS system reliable? My district matches a crazy amount, but the volatile nature of education politics really freaks me out sometimes.
Thank you!
