Retirement is great...I am blessed not to have any financial worry...not rich just don't have to struggle...I was a dj for over 31 years...but don't miss it one minute...It was great for 20 years...and then the big corporations took all the fun out of it and make it a predictable science...and took out all of the sponteneity and variety out of it.

If you are a young fellow...save at least 10% of your pay...sacrifice if you have to...and invest it...especially if your company has a 401 K program...max out on if you can.

Then when you get ready to retire...you will be able to do it comfortably...plan now...cause it will come a lot quicker than you think.
