Here we are not talking about today but our financial status 20 years hence. For this saving and investing is as important as earning.
Long years of saving, is important. Overtime your money gets compounded, if invested wisely. So save from the day you start earning, if you have not, it is never too late to start. Invest even small amounts and do not buy things you can do without.
Read and learn about different types of investments- then you can decide what is safe and what is not. To be wealthy, you must understand money and the economy and be in charge of your wealth.
Be aware of any investment scheme that promises abnormally high returns, they are most likely to be scams – and there is always the risk of losing your capital. First you must safeguard your capital, returns are secondary.
Invest regularly in an index fund, one that tracks the overall stock market. Index funds give the best returns over long term at very low cost.
