Trade Away to Prepare for the Rainy Day

By Rick Amorey

Thinking of the future is hard, especially when you are constantly bothered by the spending of the past. Why think of putting more money into your savings when you are still constantly reminded of your student loan? How can you think of how you'll spend your retirement years if you have to worry about mortgages today?

In this time and year, even the current events present problems that will make you think twice before investing for the future. What if the total amount you have from ten years of frugality devalues by more than 50% in the stocks in less than a month? With the recession in full swing, this is unfortunately a very likely scenario.

Faced with these financial uncertainties, many choose to live for the moment rather than think ahead and invest. It's simpler to think of this month's bills, or even this period's financial recession, instead of worrying about what may happen in the coming years or even decades. I don't blame them for thinking this way, but I also think that this is a serious misjudgment.

You see, one of the fundamental truths of the human condition is the fact that everyone gets old sometime. And when your body has aged and has become weaker than it used to be, you just can't work as efficiently as you did before. By then, the best course of action would be to rely on your investments.

Obviously, you can't do that if all your money is stored in simple savings accounts with negligible interest rates. So think of investing as saving up for that rainy day; it may seem like it's so far away, but that doesn't mean that it does not matter at present. Save up, invest, and make wise decisions. Who knows? If you do it well, then you may have the capacity to retire earlier than expected. - 23222
