I never posted in this thread initially but it's interesting reading through it.
I'm a little bit younger than most of the posters (who would now be getting close to 40) but it seems like many people I know are neither nest eggers nor enjoy lifers. They don't save nor travel the world, instead opting to spend their paychecks on beer and skipthedishes.
Whenever I look at retirement I always try to estimate how many more years I have to work in order to spend the same amount of money I do now (inflation not withstanding) each year of retirement. That is a very scary thought when there is a black hole of 18+ years x2 in the middle of it...
I think my generation's retirement plan is inheritance.
