"I'm no longer worried about hitting a specific savings target at the end of each month, and I've relaxed my budget significantly since my child was born." "You don't need to worry about a new baby's retirement fund for a while, but you can get their financial life off to a great start by helping them create a Roth IRA as soon as possible."
