Discipline yourself towards your goals and dreams!

Net worth, what is it and why could it be a guide to how you are doing financially. Your net worth is defined as what you own minus what you owe. Here is a very basic example of how this could be important: let’s say you feel you would need $50,000 per year in retirement, if you average 10% per year on your investments, you would need 1 million dollars in your retirement account to withdraw the $50,000 without touching the million dollars. If you had only $200,000 in that scenario you’d only be able to withdraw $20,000 per year. Add in other things like a paid for house and no consumer debt and your money needs are greatly reduced. This leaves extra money to enjoy those golden years! Go on that cruise, buy that vacation property or that car, boat or airplane!

The article below discusses how many people are achieving that million dollar milestone.

Learning about your net worth is important to know as you work on your goals and dreams!

Great post from Millionaire Soldiers!
Be calm and patient, buy when the market is on sale, let your dividends buy more and trust in the compounding!

Goals and dreams!!

“In the 20th century, the United States endured two world wars and other traumatic and expensive military conflicts; the Depression; a dozen or so recessions and financial panics; oil shocks; a flu epidemic; and the resignation of a disgraced president. Yet the Dow rose from 66 to 11,497." -Warren Buffett

To summarize: Long term investors win!
Also, in the photo below, I don’t know if Buffett actually said this about nuclear war, but I agree. It does line up with his famous quote “be greedy, when others are fearful. Be fearful, when others are greedy.”

While most people are worried about the stock market dropping due to war, I will be buying up the market while it’s on sale! Why? Because if you would simply study the entire history of the stock market, you would realize that every time the market crashes, it ALWAYS comes back. Always!

When the market crashes, it’s not like Microsoft, Apple, and Coca-Cola are all of a sudden worth $0. Market crashes give people a chance to buy great companies at amazing prices! When the market goes back up, and eventually it will, those who stayed calm, stayed patient, and bought the market while it was on sale, will come out way ahead of those who panicked and pulled their money out of the stock market.

Remember, investing is like a roller coaster. You will not get hurt on a roller coaster unless you take your seatbelt off. With investing, you will not lose money unless you actually pull your money out. So buckle up, buy the sale, and ride it out!

**As always, do your own research before investing. Nothing is guaranteed. I am not a licensed financial advisor.

Very important part of working on your goals and dreams!

All the money in the world is no good if you don’t have your health. Take care of your self. Oh… you don’t have time? A one hour workout is only 5% of your day.😉
