Youth is a wonderful thing, but it's wasted on the young.

Very optimistic outlook on life. Yes if I'm floating around on a yacht in my 60's then that would be awesome.
Reality is most people are retiring closer to their 70's, eventually living in a small condo after downsizing, good chance they're alone, and spend most of their time saving so they can live off a small pension. And it's only going to be worse from here on in when the retirement age goes up and the boomers drain our economy.
