What will this look like in the future? A future where I don’t have to rely on going to work every day at a set time in order to pay the bills and make ends meet. This week I read a book called, you guessed it “Financial Freedom” by Grant Sabatier.
Wow- What an eye opening book. I thought that if I just saved really hard I would eventually get to where I needed to be but according to this book I have no hope – this thought led to a glass or two of wine. But once you get past realising that what you are currently doing is not working the book is full of the most amazing inspiration and it really makes investing in your retirement seem like something that anyone can do.
While we have fairly solid Kiwi Saver funds that are on track to have we will need to retire at 65- who the hell wants to wait that long, who knows if we will make it that long! And sooo…my plan for this coming week is to open a managed fund. One that can build up money and wait for it I can access before I am 65!
