Memorizing long sequences of numbers and conveying mnemonics for them (e.g. 512 becomes EAB, 3.1415... becomes C.ADAE...). Technology allowed humans to forgot how to memorize, for example, phone numbers. This is not good for long-term memory.

Open a Roth IRA and make max contributions to it every year. Most Americans will not be fortunate enough to rely on a pension upon retirement and that employer sponsored 401k will not be enough. They are throwing us to the wolves once they can no longer extract value from our bodies so start preparing now. The sooner the better.
