Warning – Do You Work Too Hard and Forget Your Savings?
Do you work too hard and are you too busy to make your savings work for you? There is no problem with working hard. I encourage that. But when you neglect your savings and what they can do for you, too long, you may not do yourself a favor. Here is a simple solution.
When you work hard and keep your expenses lower than your earnings, you save money. Every month, you see your savings growing. That is a great feeling.
You Lose Money on Your Savings Account
If you are like most people, you just keep your savings somewhere on a savings account. This nets you probably at this moment somewhere between the 2% and 3% interest per year.
This is about the same as inflation. And how much have the food prices been rising recently? Food has increased in price much more than a few percent during the last year. This means that even when you get 2% interest, you can do now less with your savings that a year ago.
The situation is not hopeless. There are simple approaches out there that you can use to invest your savings in a smart way. You probably can get a return that is in the long-run at least two or three times higher than what your savings account offers you.
Now there is always a risk of course when you invest your money. The higher the risk is, the higher the potential reward. My recommendation to you is that you take some time now to find a way to make your savings work for you. How do you do that? Here is a simple solution.
Spend On Hour a Week to Find Your Choice
Spend one hour per week to study the different options you have to make your savings grow faster in the long-term. Spend this one hour per week until you have found an approach that works for you. Then implement that strategy.
It is important that you find an investment strategy that is good for you. You must like it. You must understand it. These are your savings that you are going to invest. Choose an approach that gives you peace of mind.
For me that is the Stock Trend Investing approach. For you it may be different.
Spend that one hour per week till you have found and implemented your choice. After that you may only need one hour per month. But this one hour per week now, will be one of your best invested hours ever.
