Ooh la la, look at Mr. Money Bags over here with extra cash to save for retirement.

If you go all the way to retirement age without ever saving a dime, there is some self reflection to be done

Not necessarily your fault. Some careers just don't pay anything, and some areas only ever have low paying jobs, and some people are disabled etc etc.

A lot of people are born poor, live poor, and die poor. Getting out is the exception.

Getting out may be an exception but self-defeating right away, like a lot of people in this thread, isn't the way to become the exception.
