LOL... half of the people that I know that are in their 20's and 30's can't even get a credit card because their credit rating is so screwed up.

And they live from paycheck to pay check, rent, and have all the latest toys. I sincerely doubt that by the time they are old enough to retire they'll be any better off than the current generation of boomers.

There's a lot of Xers and Yers on here who aren't in that situation but their education and income levels also aren't the norm. When you have a lot of disposable income its a lot easier to save for retirement. Most people don't have that ability.
