So I want to gauge where I stand for retirement and the future. I live in a small rural area in eastern ky. Probably the poorest area in the USA. I’m 39 married Male with 2 small children. I make roughly $50k a year, my wife the same. I live modestly so I have saved my whole life. I own a small 2 bedroom home with a lot of land. I have no debt, and I have roughly $100k in the bank. My wife has $50k in her savings. I have started to invest in stocks but I’m a little in the red with how the last couple of years have went. I have lived without for alot of my life, but I want to feel secure so that if I lose my job it won’t be the end of the world. In these small areas jobs are very slim. Given my current condition, what would be the best method to grow my finances, with what I already have?
