Been framing houses as a solo carpenter in rural Ohio for 15 years, and now I'm staring down retirement with barely $50k socked away from all those lean winters. I track everything in QuickBooks but never set aside enough for the 401k match my accountant keeps pushing. Damn, wish I'd started earlier with some side gigs like custom cabinet installs to pad the nest egg.

Frustrated as hell with the same thing, poured everything into my table saw upgrades and now my IRAs are a joke after 20 years swinging a hammer.
