The Warren Buffett Story
Many people have lived their entire adult lives believing that any day their lives will suddenly become easier—that they would have a financial windfall to give them the big break they thought they needed. But sadly, most people who think like that eventually lose their reputations and their self respect. And when it comes retirement time, they simply don’t have enough money to live on. So, how can you avoid that scenario?
Well, if you are earning money (and it doesn’t even matter if it’s not very much,) get some advice from a reputable financial planner about personal investments and money management. Let your money start working for you!
You know, the you of the future will still be you. Time will pass and things will change, but I assure you that the you of the future will be mighty angry with the you of the past if there is nothing to show for years and years of your hard work!
