  4. Salary Increases • The expected salary increase is estimated at 4% per year. The 4% is representative of cost of living increases as well as potential bonuses and merit-based salary increases.

  5. Saving Early • To begin saving…..start with a 5% salary investment. Increase the percentage every 5 years by 1% until 10% is reached. • In this way, you can analyze your financial situation and adjust your investments with what is comfortable during that stage of life.
