Seriously, you need to start thinking about that very early these days, especially as social security will probably be either dead or worth very little by the time you retire.
I don't know how true this is in the USA, but you probably want to try to buy a house ASAP, as mortgage payments etc are usually lower than rent.
This means that you're building up equity, so instead of the house costing you for no return, it will eventually become yours thus reclaiming at least some of what you've paid out on it!
Also, don't forget holidays!
You can't expect McNut to fly out to you every time, as that would be plain evil. |
