Save 15-25% of your income for retirement and future expenses, then spend the rest on whatever you want.

How do people not think of that, putting a quarter of your income away monthly, so obvious, I wonder why they don't do it

Also a "retirement" implies a functioning biosphere in which to retire, fat chance.

I don't think its easy, or reasonable. Part of my point is specifically that it's unattainable for most.

Ah, fair enough.
