Like most everyone not working a government job, I will be working likely until eligible for social security—for my age group I think that’s currently 67, but I’ve got a few decades of socking away into my 401k before I’m really worried about it.

I don’t plan on ever getting social security. My generation won’t get the same benefit current generations get, and really, I’m fine with that. I’m assuming I won’t get benefits since the only real solution I can imagine will be means testing for benefits.

You don’t have a retirement plan with the company you work for? Really? What the heck do you do for a living? The vast majority of private employers
have some form of retirement. That might be a structured program or one based on the performance of the company stock (which can be sucky).
