Just a word to the wise!
My Father and Grandfather told me over and over, "Have a house paid for before you retire". They are both long gone, but I actually listened to them.
I am 53 and was a Server Engineer at Dell, so I had the money to payoff the house and our cars. The wife and I have had no debt for 13yrs. When I got laid off, we could have lost everything (I make half then what is used to make), if things were not paid for.
So, you younger people, I know it is hard to get a job, but do everything you can to get setup for later in life.
Life and the economy will throw you plenty of curves along the way, but you will make it with good planning!
Not many young people realize, they will have to take care of their parents when they get older.
