Connections: Saving While You're Young

Was it the worst financial advice ever? Maybe that's a stretch, but an essay that's gone viral is frustrating financial advisers. That's because the essay advises people in their 20s not to save -- even saying that anyone with a bank statement is failing at making a statement about who they are in life. Our panel looks at the essay, and offers some ideas about just how much we should try to be saving, and when.
