Start Planning for your Tomorrow

Start Planning for your Tomorrow

God has given us the right to be responsible for our own prosperity & He has given us the power to make wealth.

When you have the ability to make money you subdue poverty. And the only way to make money work is to put it into use.

God has put in every man the capacity to reproduce, hence he put a seed in your hands, a seed that you can eat from and still remain for your generation after you have gone. But many have become liabilities even when they are still alive; they have eaten every thing that God gave them for their children and their children's children because they spent all their days wasting and mismanaging things.

You will wonder if mismanagement is a culture, please count me out. I belong to the 20% that has the capacity to multiply wealth.

Nigeria is making billions from oil but where is the money? No, don't just go throwing it on the government, the government has nothing to do with your personal finance. Those pensioners today who put their faith in government in the seventies, eighties and nineties, you will agree with me that they are not enjoying it today. Even those that died in the process of fighting for their money could not even get the government to bury their corpse.

You are responsible for your future finance & your future begins from now. The earlier you know the better.

Do you know that your future has more financial demand that the present? You fail to realize most times that you have more years to live and the more these years roll by, the more it becomes financially demanding for you as a person.

Planning your personal financial life: the problem is not that majority can't always get money but they lack the ability to sustain wealth, and the first step to sustaining wealth is your ability to manage money properly.

This is the only way to beat inflation and prepare for the future, but first:

1, you must be industrious. Find work to do. That job could be in you. Look inward.

2, once you have discovered a source of income, stay focuses and regulate it.

3, your income may come anyhow but you must regulate your expenditure for you to have a balanced investment.

4, your tomorrow is very important, the earlier you start preparing for it through investment the better your today becomes, in these days of job insecurity (200 aviation staffs sacked. 10,000 drivers lose their jobs as a result of government monetization policy in 2004) can you imagine? Even civil servants no more have job security.

5, your future job security only lies in your today's investment.

If you have not started planning for your tomorrow, why not get started now because it is not too late until it is late.
