My score was 168. I guess I already know that I'm oversaving, but I'm still enjoying my life today and doing things I want to do, so I don't feel strapped for cash. I am not willing to decrease my savings because you never know what lies ahead, and I, like you, would rather oversave.

One other thing I notice is that even though these calculators say I'm saving too much, the proof is in the pudding! hee hee (pun intended). We'll see what happens!
