I'm not an expert at investing but I've done ok. I paid off my house 100% at age 39. Paid off EVERYTHING, actually. No mortgage, no bike payments, no car payments, etc, etc. I'm about ready to become a greeter at Walmart and cover all of my bills. Life could be a lot worse. 
ps- I never bought a single share of Harley stock.
pss- buahahahgubuahbuabuabauuahafuaabruahahaha!
