I put 1k in the IRA. I can't really consistently put money in the account right now. I feel like I made a big mistake. I'm hardly working right now. Have a baby due in October. I thought I needed to open up an IRA since I quit my main job last year to stay home with our older son and I'm not really investing in my retirement like I should be. I have 11k in my 401k from the job that I quit and I have about 4k in my current 401k. They don't match but they do one lump sum contribution a year.
My husbands job has been inconsistent but we are in a blessed position where are bills are very low. I feel like I made a irrational decision but I know I need to start taking my retirement seriously since I'm in my early 30s
