i don't know what your age is though, and the hippie generation really screwed a lot up for the american mindset.... no responsibilty.
I'm 42, and have been paying into SS my whole working life! That's a butt-load of money that I could have put into MY 401K! I'm ticked that others are living off what I need to save!! At least at 25 and 26 you have plenty of time to save, and soon enough you won't have to pay SS.
