Sammy touched on it and its a good piece of advice. As soon as you enter the work force, open a savings account, put 10% of EVERY paycheck in that account and forget about it. That is YOUR tithe, that is the first bill you pay every week. It will not be much at first but it will grow with your career. Then you decide where to invest it as some time goes by. Put 10% of your income away your entire working career and you'll never even need your SS check.
