Well yeah, at 30k a year you can't afford to retire, you are still working. But 30k isn't hard to achieve. Hopefully if you've spent money on college, you've got a skillset which will make more than that, and then you can pay back those loans, and all the other stuff.

Nobody can help you if you are fiscally irresponsible, it's not an unobtainable path to freedom though.

Your post assumes that young person went to college, successfully obtained a degree, and has growth potential in their career. There are many, many people who are missing one of those things, and are screwed because of it.
