If you have a young adult in your life who just landed a full-time job, here is something very important they may not understand yet:
A workplace retirement match is free money. But many employees are automatically enrolled at a contribution rate that is too low to earn the maximum company match.
That means they could unknowingly be leaving money behind.
A quick check-in with HR or Benefits can fix that. Help them make sure they are contributing enough to get every dollar their employer is willing to match.
Small decisions early in life can make an enormous difference later on.
