Too many people spend every dime they make, don't take advantage of
401K's, and wonder how they are going to retire on SS alone.


I also wonder how anyone over 50 or so with a mortgage and car
payments ever expects to retire. I paid cash for my house here in 84
and I paid off my mortgage on the condo in 1990. I haven't had a car
payment since the Nixon administration. In spite of all of that I
sound like a pauper when I hear how much money you guys make.


Gotta admit, it took me 15 years to pay for my house!

And you think you feel like a pauper!
