The Dream Big Site is a cool site for you to find tips, tools, and resources to help you plan and save for your financial goals. The site is produced by the ICMA Retirement Corporation (ICMA-RC), a not-for-profit organization that provides retirement planning education, products and services to public sector employees, created this site to provide a resource for young savers, particularly those who work for or are considering careers in the public sector. Their hope is to engage all young savers in a way that will enrich their lives.
Check out their “Reality Check” calculators section and here is a good article on “Navigating Public Sector Challenges”.
