It may be extraneous thinking, as others have pointed out, but maybe it's a good sign that you can plan for more important things. If you haven't started saving for retirement yet, start now. Compounded interest is most powerful when you start early. Save at least 5% of your take-home if you can, and later, you can build a habit of saving even more.
