Financial Truth #2

"LITTLE THINGS MEAN A LOT!  A SMALL CHANGE IN YOUR LIFESTYLE NOW, CAN MAKE A LARGE CHANGE IN YOUR FUTURE."  Just investing $20 per week, can result in significant wealth.  That is correct, investing less than $3 per day can make you wealthy.  Most of us waste more than $3 per day.  If a person would invest $20 per week starting at the age of 18 at an average rate of return of just 8%, he or she would have accumulated more than $550,000 by the time they retire.  This is a lot more than the $16,000 the average retiree has saved now.  This $550,000 will provide monthly retirement payments of $4,200 per month for over 20 years without any additional contributions.  This is a significant improvement over relying only on Social Security.
