The very fact that you have no revolving debt and are an active saver at 26 puts you way ahead of the curve. I would suggest that you consider opening your ROTH IRA asap. You can invest 5,500 a year which will become a substantial tax free retirement vehicle but the contributions can be withdrawn at any time without penalty (please avoid the temptation). I would also suggest that you at least consider a home purchase. With interest rates at extremely low levels and the inherent tax advantages of home ownership, it's a no-brainer.
Congrats on getting the jump on your peers, you will be miles ahead of them in your 40's and 50's.
