Maxing out her 401K contributions since the age of 22! She is my hero. I want to understand how she had the foresight and discipline to do that at such a tender age, particularly on a modest salary. And it's excellent that she carries (at least one) copy of her own book with her at all times!
I love reading how Amy feels about being financially independent of others and prideful about paying off debt. If negotiation is a stretch, exercise that! The market is okay with it, and it is a way to realize your human capital!
I so resonated with both 1 and 7! And part of 6 - I'm been financially providing for myself since 20, and worked 3 jobs during college. Definitely not debt-free or maxing out my 401k though - yet!
"What is the financial trait you most deplore in others?" - ooh this one is so juicy and I am here for it. I love Amy's answer to it too!
Can you share what year the $26K was? That’s a significant detail!

#9 about money regrets is so real. I feel like I’m decent at negotiating (I have for every job I’ve had) but even still I have regrets there too!
Also I love Black Seed bagels too!!
