Default Re: Saving too much?

Not addressed is the loss of pensions and employer paid healthcare. How will some 20-something retire at 65 without a pension? They have to cover themselves with 401k/Roth IRA. The truth is that people nowdays don't have a defined benefit plan like before. SO it's tough to compare a retiree of today with a retiree in 40 years.
