Planning for retirement can be sticky. We have not been in a position to save due to high medical costs. But there are a few things you can do.
Hope this helps someone.

Coreen, you always have good, practical advice. I hope it reaches someone who really needs it.
I agree too. Maybe you can't put $100.00/wk aside for retirement, but there are a million small things a person can do. The trick is to do them steadily without fail for a number of years, and to not become discouraged.
The small things will help build your resolve to move on to other things that will also help save money, and the small things add up. Repurposing is another thing that will help save money. I'm surprised by the things that I've found I can do without and are no longer important to me; I'm shocked by what friends spend on things they deem necessary even though they don't have the money to pay for them. I've always looked at being frugal as being smart. Having the money to spend when needed and having some in the bank too.
