Default Re: Advice for young people

I'm trying to decide if I should put money into a 401k through my work, which has a matching program.

However, I just graduated from college, and I am hoping to go back to school in July to start a Master's Program.

Some people have said to start saving as early as possible, others are saying that I don't want to lock away that money when I will have more immediate expenses (i.e. some of grad school tuition, my car payment, undergrad loans). And I've also heard that I should be saving money toward a down payment on a house before I start saving for retirement.
