More young people need to know that the time to get started is NOW. You also point out that people are living longer. You could easily be retired for 25 years or MORE. That requires some planning. Costs of living will certainly go up during that period when your are retired. I have a new book coming out, "Help! My 401(k) Has Fallen - And Must Get Up!" which reveals secrets about the 401(k) which can help you get more out of it. One thing which is needed is better education for employees on how to use their plan. You can also get a free report through my website - "The 5 Biggest Problems With 401(k) Plans - And How To Fix Them". Great article.

Think of it like this: you spend 22 years supported by your family, you spend 40 years working, you spend 25 years living off your "nest egg" and Social Security. Start saving a lot as early as possible and invest it appropriately. Most young people have difficulty grasping that one day people will be singing happy birthday and there will be 65 candles on the cake. The choice you have that day will depend on your savings program over many years. Good advice.
