Do you have employer match or anything that helps motivate you to contribute?

Yep! And every employer that has offered has had some kind of match.

I've rolled all my 401ks over with each new job.

I also have an IRA from money I saved towards retirement while working in Canada for 18 months. I took the tax penalty up front since I'll probably be US based for majority of my life. But I did earn a match while working in Canada.

Current employer gives 4% fully vested.

Contributing 20% of income at the moment (30 to) and hoping to retire before 60.
