I have two retirement accounts: one traditional IRA and one Roth IRA.
I do but from what I've been hearing from the "Older Generation" it doesn't matter since I'm gonna be working for a while anyway (ok it does matter but I'd rather teach full time when I'm old with experience than actually "work")
I think people just like to spread doom and gloom.

That statement has never really made sense to me. Right now we are paying for all the old baby boomers and once they pass away it seems like social security will be a lot more manageable. Been hearing for years that it won't be around by the time I'm old. I think people just like to spread doom and gloom.
I have a 403b I don't know what that means exactly though
According to that list I would be a Millenial - which I definitely am not.
Yes, I have a 401K.
/Gen X
Author Jeff Gordinier, in his 2008 book X Saves the World, defines Generation X as those born roughly between 1961-1977 but possibly as late as 1980.[20] Canadian author and professor David Foot divides the post-boomer generation into two groups: Generation X, born between 1960 and 1966; and the "Bust Generation", born between 1967 and 1979, In his book Boom Bust & Echo: How to Profit from the Coming Demographic Shift.[21][22] On the American television program Survivor, for their 33rd season, subtitled Millennials vs. Gen X, the "Gen X tribe" consisted of individuals born between 1963 and 1982.[23]

Yeah according to that list I'd be a millenial, but I am not. Way more of a Gen X generation person, or what came after that really, before millenials began. Still I am certainly more like a Gen X person being born in 81.

To me, the question on whether you are a millenial or not boils down a couple of simple questions:
Did your music collection ever exist on tapes or just CDs? (or for that matter How many records have you owned? Ever seen an 8 track?)
Did you learn how to type on a computer or a typewriter?

No, '81 is a millenial, you've probably just been misusing the term.
