My wife is head of HR for a mid-sized manufacturing company that does a monthly employee newsletter. She wants me to start contributing each month with an article about a financial tip/trick/tax advice for the workers.
The very first one will essentially tell them they are screwing up if they do not at least contribute to the company match on the 401k, but that one is so easy to see even I figured it out. In later articles, I'll also point out the importance of low fees in mutual funds, time value of money,etc. What are some others?
As background, these are smart people that are fairly well paid (roughly 40 to 75k) but definitely blue collar and not the most financially savvy group. So they have no interest or need for an article on backdoor roths. We are not necessarily trying to get them fully on board with mustachianism (though that would be great) but it would be nice to see them having a shot at a secure retirement at 55 or 60.
