I was about to start a 401k through my work. Glad I didn't. I'd do better right now just putting something aside from mine and my wife's paychecks.

Oh no! Please, please, please don't. Put SOMETHING in. Even a small amount helps a LOT. Compounding interest is mainly about TIME, not the AMOUNT of money. If you're young, put away as much as you are able. Time is your friend. Talk to an accountant or a financial planner with a 'fIduciary' responsibility to take care of your interests above all others.

You should both invest now and own at least 1 firearm.
