Retirement Planning
Retirement is a whole new stage in your life, and it should be only on your terms. The earlier you start, the easier it is to make sure your money can support everything you want to do in your third and final big phase in life.Did you know that setting up a retirement plan when you are 25 years old means you only have to save 20 % of the amount compared to when you start at age 45? This is due to the compound interest. Time is money. Thus, it is not something one should put off for later.
