Increasing the monthly contribution to $200 would double that to more than $900,000. And, by saving $300 a month, you'd reach $1 million by age 61.
Go back to the "Cool Million" $100-a-month example above.

It looks as if 2008 is the year Americans get serious about saving. In a survey by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants, 25 percent of U.S. adults said they are spending smarter this year, or not spending as much, in order to save money - - that's up from just 2 percent in 2007. A survey by HSBC Direct found that 81 percent of those who responded want to increase the amount they save in 2008.

For many years, we have been a society of "buy now, pay later," often spending more than we made. People burned through any savings they may have accumulated, retirement planning was neglected, and credit cards were charged to the hilt.

WASHINGTON - Pressured by increased scrutiny of terrorist money sources and strikes aimed at its financiers, al-Qaida's core organization in Pakistan has turned to kidnapping for ransom to offset dwindling cash reserves, according to U.S. officials and information in files retrieved from Osama bin Laden's compound.
Bin Laden's interest in kidnapping as a cash-raiser bolsters accounts that the financial squeeze has staggered al-Qaida, forcing it to search for alternative funding sources. Officials would not detail al-Qaida's role in specific crimes, but the group's affiliates have targeted diplomats, tourists and merchants.
