How to Improve Yourself and Never Be Broke Again

From time to time, you dream of reaching financial freedom. Every time you do something you don’t like, you justify it with future wealth. You say: “One day, I will have enough money to do what I love, live by my own rules!”

It’s good that you believe strongly in yourself. However, months pass, and you don’t feel any closer to your goal.

You know you will make it for sure in the next decade. In the next five years, maybe, if you work hard. Two years? Who knows. One year? Definitely not.

How do you stop being broke? It just takes forever.

I mean, you probably know what to do. You can find millionaire strategies almost on every single website. Google “make money online,” and you’ll see it.

But for some reason, they don’t work well for you. Darn! If only you had more money or started earlier, this would be so much easier.

That’s the problem I see with most advice. It’s too generic.

Let’s get it straight: if you’re broke, you want money FAST. You don’t have time for MLMs or compound interest. Passive income is cool, but the “four-hour workweek” won’t get you far enough.

What Your Goal Should Be if You’re Broke

You can’t just follow the “7 habits of the rich”, or “6 ways millionaires earn $300K/mo.” The strategies we use to go from broke to rich are different than going from rich to filthy rich.

If you’re curious, these are the financial stages. Each of them has different goals and tools:

Broke/Survival → Financial Uncertainty → Financial Stability → Financial Comfort → Financial Freedom → Financial Confidence

I don’t know what your destination is. All I know is:

You progress a lot faster when you use what you have on each level. It’s super-hard to go from broke to billionaire if you only use free strategies. It’s also unnecessary. Use the best you have and always reinvent yourself.

Do you want something more explanatory? Try comparing simple and compound interest.

Let’s say you have a $100 fund that increases 100% of the original sum every day. So it grows like this:

100 → 200 → 300 → 400 → 500

If that’s your strategy, you’re going to wait hundreds of years before getting wealthy. It’s also called simple interest.

Now, compound interest considers the whole amount, and the growth is exponential:

100 → 200 → 400 → 800 → 1600

You may wonder: How can I increase my money exponentially?

Well, let’s see what resources you have.

Why Even Broke People Can Become Rich

Even if your bank account has a negative balance, that doesn’t stop you from making millions. We all have three valuable resources:

They’re easily exchangeable. Somewhere, someone is always willing to give you money for your time or knowledge.

Poor people will sell their time to make money. But broke people can make money with their skills. And the rich will buy time with money.

Why do rich people do that? Because time is the most valuable source. You can have a billion dollars. You can’t have a billion days (at least, yet).

Plus, you can only experience time one second at a time. With money, you can move as many dollars as you want.

That means time is a linear, diminishing resource. But money can be exponential.

If you can make money without trading your time, you have the freedom to spend it however you want (AKA passive income). And when you earn passive money fast, that’s what people call being RICH.

Anybody can be a millionaire. But being rich is about speed. It’s how you get exponential results and stop being broke. Here’s your plan:

…And YES, it is possible to go from broke to millionaire overnight. But likely? NO. What we’re showing is a strategy anybody can follow.

And it all starts by investing your time. Come on, you must have some. When you can’t pay your bills, can money be anything but your top priority?

Unless you’re okay staying broke, keep reading.

How to Go From Broke to Rich

People dream about being rich one day, but they don’t know how to get there, so they never do anything. But all you need to do is take the first step, and everything else will come later.

That first step is knowing your numbers.

#1 What’s your income goal?

You won’t start thinking of solutions until you define the problem. And you can’t think about the problem if you don’t know you have one.

What do you do?

1. Find out how much you need to spend (and remove the non-essential)
2. Define how much you want to save
3. Add up both values to know what to earn every month
4. Break it down into daily income goals

When you write down expenses, be generous with the budget you assign for emergencies. Give your predictions a margin of error of 10-30%.

Here’s something to clarify about Step 4. You only want to break things down for linear income streams:

Make the exercise to know your expenses, target income, and how much time you have to achieve it.

#2 Be smarter with your money

When you’re broke, you want to get the most value you can from every single dollar. It’s not about being frugal, but spending more on what matters:

Smart money means you prioritize investments over liabilities. Instead of enjoying your savings right now, you delay that reward to grow your money faster.

Another smart idea; working on your credit score:

An excellent credit score shows banks and lenders that you know how to manage money. Because of it, they can lend you more money, which you’ll use to speed up your path to wealth.

Borrowing may sound prohibitive for broke people. But notice that debt is good when you know how to use it. Because you’re going to invest in an exponential system, you’re actually saving time and money (despite the interest rates).

#3 High Income Skills

Who said you need money to make money? With all you can learn online, it doesn’t take much time to develop marketable skills. People always need others to make their businesses efficient, whether it’s to build a team or save time (outsource).

High-income skills typically relate to marketing. And the best is, you can learn how businesses work as you work. You don’t even need to buy a course!

As for the actual skills, here’s how each of them provides value:

The good news is, these skills are broad. Whatever your passion is, I can guarantee you there’s a position in the niche you like, whether it’s content writing, email marketing, video editing, or web design.

All you need to do to start is registering on a freelance site like Upwork. You start small to get known in the sector. And once you have reviews and a portfolio, you can easily contact clients and start projects.

Another plus is, you work for results. Only you know what your time is worth, but here, you can work as much or as little as you want. While you work, your skills naturally improve, so you get the same work done better and faster.

Want another plus? All these skills are also useful when starting your own business. You’re killing two birds with one stone.

#4 Start an agency business

You can always lose your money as long as your income depends on your time. Agencies solve that problem. And unlike other business models, they don’t require any knowledge other than what you have. If you can be successful at a job, you can start an agency.

When people don’t have any money, it’s recommended that they follow this strategy. Not only you’ll build up your savings but also save time. Here’s how it works:

1. You’re flat broke and have lots of “free time.” You invest it in learning a skill you’re interested in and the market wants
2. You visit freelance sites and work with your first clients or for other agencies. You gather reviews, gain credibility, and improve your skills through practice
3. You now know how to deliver the best work on the niche you picked. Now, you’re going to focus on finding more clients instead. You visit other sites, write proposals, and prepare for interviews
4. By this point, you have enough high-paying work to keep you busy all the time. You have money, but many clients are depending on your work. So you can’t leave or you might lose them. What do you do?
5. You go back to the freelance sites— now as a client— and you try to qualify people like you. Some people are really skilled at the same work, but because they don’t have much credibility, they will accept to work for a lower rate
6. The difference between your rate and the rate you pay them is your passive profit margin. You hire these people to do freelance work for you instead. All you do is training them, checking quality, and recruiting more
7. You keep expanding your team until you no longer have to work yourself. If you add all the commissions taken from your freelancers, you’re earning more than when you were working on it full time
8. You now have a profitable agency and spend less than four hours a week managing it

Does it sound doable, exciting? It all starts with learning. Find out what people want and learn how to offer that service.

And if that’s still too time-consuming, you could sell your agency for a few million dollars and exit.

You choose how fast you want it to happen: how you learn, meet clients, complete projects, and recruit people.

Avoid These Business Models

When you’re broke, it’s valuable to make money as soon as possible. You do have free time but not enough to waste it on failing ideas.

When people think of making money online, they think of network marketing, building a website, or creating your online image. But do you know how many months that takes?

If you want money fast, you have to solve other people’s problems fast. If you start a traditional business, you’re going to spend a lot of time just trying to get attention or authority.

Do you know what all of these have in common? You expect to work once and earn money from them forever (AKA the passive income dream). But you can’t create income streams from thin air. It takes time, work, and money.

As a broke entrepreneur, prioritize active over passive when your problem is money. When your problem is time, then you switch those goals.

Do you think active income streams are for losers? They are actually the shortcut to fund your passive sources of income.

Are You Poor or Just Broke?

How would you differentiate broke people from the poor? Poor implies a situation you can’t change, typically due to the lack of earning ability.

But broke? Anybody can lose their money. That doesn’t mean you can’t get it back. In fact, it can be a temporary strategy to earn even more.

There are two differences: earning potential and beliefs.

You can be poor and broke at the same time. If being broke is having <$800 under your name, what does it mean to be poor?

Well, America considers “poor” anybody who earns US$12,760 per year or less. In an expensive world like this, that’s barely enough to get by.

But poverty doesn’t need to last forever. If your earning potential is high enough, you can make money really quickly. Here are the five biggest factors that influence your success:

5 “Reasons” people are poor

Also, what does your own environment look like? Do you hang out with the right people? Do you have distractions?

Now, you don’t control all of these factors. But changing them is easier than you ever thought possible:

“If you are born poor, it is not your fault. But if you die poor, it is your fault.” – Bill Gates

None of these are permanent. You can change anytime. Then why do people stay poor? It’s all about beliefs and self-awareness.

Why the poor stay poor

The rich say being poor is a state of mind. What does that really mean?

What do you believe about money? How you see the world is the only difference between being broke and poor.

Why Are You Broke?

If you’re poor and don’t want to change, you have nothing to do. But know that you know the truth, it’s time to make some changes.

Don’t you hate it when people complain about nonsense? They say they can’t fix their problems, or they can’t do it without help. You look and think: “Doesn’t this person see you just need to do X? Why aren’t they doing it?”

Maybe you see yourself that way as well. “Why haven’t I thought of it earlier?”

You see, it’s not enough to know what to do. You have to know why you should do it. Otherwise, you’ll make the same mistakes.

We feel the moral obligation to do whatever is right. And once you become aware of your mistakes, you can stop making them.

#1 Penny wise, pound foolish

Imagine that your favorite fast-food restaurant offers free meals for one day. You don’t want to miss out, so you drive to the place immediately. And like you, there are hundreds of people waiting for their free meal.

After waiting for hours, you get your free order. But was it worth it?

Well, you spend around $5 for driving twice. And you wasted two hours waiting, while you could have been working instead.

Bad decision. Broke people make many of them.

Look, when I said you should get the most out of every dollar, I didn’t mean it literally. At least, you want to start cutting off wherever you can save the most money. If you want to save, save big. Don’t think small.

So, what do you think you should save first? Two things:

Everybody will tell you: you can’t get rich trading hours for dollars. But when you’re trying to earn initial capital, every minute matters.

Also, people think of saving money the wrong way. It’s not just about spending less money. It’s about how much you have left after spending. If you have $10, spending doesn’t mean you can’t end with more than $10.

Because investing returns your money, it counts as saving. Compare giving $100 to two different people:

#2 Your income goals are too small

Would you rather make $1000 today or $1000 this month? And if you could only work one day this month, would you choose to work the first day or wait until the end of the month?

$100 earned today is worth more than $100 earned tomorrow. It’s also fun to make money when you see yourself earning quickly.

Think of those days when you had to bring money, or bad things would happen. You probably left everything else and got to work. And in just a few days, you earn more than what you made for the whole month. Because the challenge was high enough, you gave your best.

What happens when your goals aren’t big enough? You get overconfident. You wait for tomorrow to start because you’ll probably do it in half of the time.

Of course, you miss the deadline.

It’s more motivating to start with something big, desirable. Let’s say your rent is $400. Your average income is $1000, but you could make $4000 if you really worked hard.

If you make the monthly payment your goal, you will do the bare minimum to pay the $400. Instead, you could say: “My goal is to earn enough to pay for my rent 12 times (one year). AND as soon as I achieve that, I can quit my job, or take a vacation for the rest of the year.”

See? You now have a reason to wake up in the morning. You end up achieving in 45 days what would have taken you a year. By the time you finish, you’re so excited about this time you saved that you will want new bigger goals.

That’s the right attitude for success.

#3 You worry too much about money and businesses

Every single broke person has thought this: “If only I had a bit more money, I would never be broke again.” Comment if this happened to you.

It’s very tempting to look at money and businesses as the solution. But as you’ll realize, it only leads to new problems:

Imagine I gave you a passive income stream. You do nothing, and it earns $2,000 per month while you sleep. You may think you have peace of mind, but you now have another problem. That source isn’t going to last forever.

You now worry about:

Financial freedom isn’t enough. You need financial confidence.

Meaning? You have to invest in things you can’t lose and never depreciate:

#4 Making money isn’t your priority

You like the idea of making money, but not enough to let go of whatever you’re currently doing. Believe it or not, there are broke people who don’t care about their situation.

They prefer to distract themselves with bad habits. Or blame others.

They know what they want and why they should work harder. But their environment keeps them distracted.

You see, you can’t motivate yourself with money. It has to be attached to something meaningful.

“If I earned an extra $3K, that would be great, but it wouldn’t change anything.”

What do you want to do with that money? How do you want to invest in it? How much do you need to make a change? Make that your goal.

Let’s say you owe $10,000. That doesn’t mean you can’t pursue your goals until you pay that back. You can allocate 50-70% for debt and keep everything else for yourself. But if you want things to happen faster, allocate more.

#5 You don’t have the right people around you

What if everyone around you is broke? Maybe they think money isn’t important, it can’t buy happiness, or some other cliché.

You won’t believe it’s possible for you to change, so you’ll approach your goals casually.

None of these behaviors is bad. People simply do what’s best for their goals. If you want to change and they don’t, they’ll try to protect their identity before questioning anything.

The moment you find the right people, it demystifies what it takes to go from broke to millionaire.

Here’s a hack: if you can’t leave your current relationships, try to help them with their own problems first. You will find they instinctually become more supportive and receptive.

#6 You’re okay wasting your time for a comfortable life

Ergo, you have unrealistic expectations.

You see all the different ways you can get out and make money. But you don’t like any of them.

You may even rationalize: “I don’t see anything wrong with being comfortable as long as it pays the bills.”

Why is this so uncomfortable?

Because the fastest way to stop being broke is to delay gratification.

You’re trading two options:

a. Get a nice reward every time you work hard

b. Work harder for no reward, so you never have to work ever again

People choose the first one because the second takes too long. Do you know why? Because we don’t push ourselves enough.

After you leave college, nobody forces you to improve anymore. You have to do it, and if you don’t, you won’t get very far.

That’s the psychological part of making money. If you become mentally stronger (good habits, attitude, consistency), you automatically get rid of your money problems.

#7 You’re too worried about being broke

How can that be a problem? Yes, it is.

Some people can’t accept that they’re broke. Because they don’t see the problem, they can’t get to a solution.

Ironically, worrying about being broke keeps you broke. Maybe this happened to you:

Those “status products” take different forms: a bigger house, better cars, Rolex watches, branded clothes, or jewelry.

For me, it was in the form of business books. I hated the fact that I was broke, but these books would make me feel rich. “I’m smart, I have a plan, and my future will be brilliant!”

And when you don’t feel it anymore, you keep buying more. It’s called action faking. It’s trying to look like you’re doing something instead of doing it. It’s a waste of time and costs you money.

How to Never Be Broke EVER Again

If a poor person wins the Powerball, would you consider them wealthy? According to statistics, most winners end up in even worse conditions. Because they haven’t created the right systems to keep growing.

See, you wouldn’t consider yourself rich if you earned 10 million and lost 11. You’d be broke and in debt.

You have to know how to keep it, or you’re going to lose it. You may have financial freedom today, but for how long?

When you have millions of dollars, it can be intimidating. Because you know how much more money to protect. But luckily, it’s easier to stay rich than to become rich. What decisions would you make if someone gave you a few million right now?

#1 Live below your means

It doesn’t mean being frugal. But don’t be extravagant unless you want to get into trouble and lose it all.

According to recent studies, people don’t need to spend more than $95,000 per year on their lifestyle to live happily. If you go beyond that, you won’t feel any difference.

When you’re broke, you certainly want to invest in your lifestyle. If you’re living off ramen noodles and living in a tiny studio, you want to invest in yourself. It will help you earn more.

After that point, you don’t need to upgrade much. Why waste more money on things you don’t need? Only you decide how much to spend on your lifestyle. But if you want to get rich quick, that means sacrificing your lifestyle in the short term.

It’s okay to be comfortable. But instead of taking one year, it may take you ten.

Define what your perfect life would look like and calculate the daily cost. If your daily profits are higher than those expenses, you’re living below your means AND happily.

#2 Your emergency fund

No system is perfect. Whether you’re a business owner, an employee, or an investor, you should expect your main income stream to stop working at some point, at least temporarily. But that’s not the problem. The question is: Are you ready for it?

These are the kinds of questions that keep you up at night. All it takes is a bit of bad luck to lose your job/investment/go out of business.

You should do your best to prepare and do everything perfectly. But don’t expect to make zero mistakes. Give yourself an error margin as well.

Let’s say your website shuts down for unexpected reasons. Or the economy is against you, so you need to close. How many days can you bear without making profits?

You want to have enough cash reserves to last until the problem fixes. For example:

#3 Take control of your assets

It would be terrible that some of those examples happened to you. And do you know why they do? Typically because you lack control.

Look, it’s not a challenge to make money when you’re broke. The hard part is to be 100% responsible for the money you make so that no-one can influence your income.

Then, what are the positions that give you control?

You don’t always have the option to take control. And in those cases, there’s a second-best choice:

#4 Diversify your assets

If something fails, you have a plan B. And with every emergency plan you add, you’re protecting your wealth.

Let’s assume you equally invest in two assets. If you lose one, you won’t lose all your money, but you still lose too much. That’s why we recommend having as many streams as possible:

2 = 50%

4 = 25%

5 = 20%

8 = 12.5%

14+ = <8%

The average two-digit millionaire has seven or more income streams (net worth divided into 14.5% each). That means:

Theoretically, it’s possible to lose all of them. But it’s improbable that you lose more than three (~35% of your income). If you want your assets to last many years, make sure you invest heavily in them.

Yes, rich people have many income streams. But they built one at a time. They don’t start another one until they’ve optimized the previous one. Because it’s a lot easier to double your money with a working business than starting a new one.

#5 Solve the entrepreneur’s dilemma

Let’s address the main concern. Businesses don’t last forever. You can’t retire with a passive income stream that earns you $4,000 per month on autopilot. After five years, it may only yield $1,500.

Luckily, you have plenty of time to fix things before that happens. But what do you do exactly?

You don’t even know how you made it work the first time. If you change a working system, it will probably stop working. But if you don’t change it, your product will become obsolete. Or some competitor will catch up.

Comment if you’ve seen this chart before. The average business owner expects to work for a few years in a company and then profit for a decade, maybe two. After that, it inevitably dies.

But what made it successful in the first place? Market research. Understanding the offer and demand.

Understand that nothing stops you from recycling the process again. Your business can theoretically last forever as long as you keep reinventing. You don’t need new ideas to make it work. Just follow the process again.

Here’s the tricky part:

When should you reinvent your business?

Well, once the company has grown, it basically sustains on its own. This is where you reap the rewards after years of work. Here, you have a 1-2 year window of abundance, which you can use to start another curve.

You want to optimize as much as possible until you grow enough (order). As soon as you grow, you want to use the profits to reinvent, innovate, mess things up (chaos). You can now overcome the initial income gap and restart the growth curve.

It’s a constant alternation between order and chaos. And those who fail to adapt will become extinct.

#6 Invest in yourself

Many people complain that they don’t have enough opportunities in the present to take action. But when you ask them “What would you do to travel back 10, 20, 30 years?” they all wish they used their time better.

Imagine you could go back to your teens while preserving all your knowledge, skills, influence, and memories. What would you do with all that time? You probably wouldn’t say: “Nah, I’ll wait until I’m older.” Or “I’m too young. Nobody will take me seriously.”

Because what you know matters. It doesn’t matter if it’s the economy, if you’re broke, or if you live with your parents. What you know always has value, and nobody can take it away from you. It’s also the shortcut to wealth.

If you lost all your money, that could be frustrating. But you will get back to richness just as fast because you know what to do. Your brain believes you can do it because you’ve been there before.

Here are some timeless assets you can build that will pay off forever:

Should You Stay Broke?

Can you believe it? Most famous entrepreneurs are broke all the time, even though they’re known for making millions. But they’re broke by choice, not by default.

Should you choose to stay broke?

That doesn’t mean you can’t afford to pay your bills. It means you live a standard lifestyle and have no money saved other than your emergency fund. If someone wanted to steal from your bank account, they would only find a few hundred dollars, if not a zero balance.

Question: What’s the point of keeping all this money when you’re not going to use it? It’s a mistake.

Not using money costs you money!

Let’s say your business earns you your first million dollars in profit. You feel excited but choose to keep the amount in your bank account. Here’s what will happen next:

The best entrepreneurs are always taking risks. It’s not necessarily because they’re motivated to innovate, but because it’s the only way to avoid this reaction.

Give a broke person a million dollars, and they will think they’re rich. But the moment they enter “Conservation Mode,” they’re programming themselves to become broke again (by accident).

So what do the rich do?

If you already made money, would you trust in your ability to do it again? The first time you earn from the Internet, you may still not know yourself how you did it. But the confidence is there.

Entrepreneurs reinvest everything, sometimes even their living expenses. Being at absolute zero forces you to make more money, which is good. And if you can’t pay your bills for some reason, there’s always the emergency fund.

Please, don’t use this to justify that being broke is good. Broke by choice is. Broke by default is an excuse.

Your First Steps to Living an Abundant Life

If you learned something from this guide, you may apply these strategies and make some money. Let’s say you can finally earn enough to stop worrying about your bills. What do you do next?

What brought you here won’t be enough to reach the next level. As soon as you achieve some financial success, start working on your future, so one day, you never have to force yourself to work again.

Here are five ways to do it, step by step:

#1 High-potential business models

If you aren’t broke anymore, you already have some money to invest. But the return you get won’t generate enough passive income. It’s better to invest in business models with unlimited upside and limited downside, even if the chances of winning are low.

Many people play the lottery because they love the idea of winning the big prize. The chance is 1 in 13,983,816.

Winning in business also has something to do with luck (timing and understanding the market). Except that the chance is maybe 1 in 8 or higher. And the more you try, the luckier you get.

It may, for example, cost $3,500 to fully finance a business. You have to be very unlucky to fail seven businesses in a row, but after you do one right, you almost always succeed in future businesses. Because you already know how to do it (it’s a skill).

Let’s say you buy “one business ticket” for $3,500 every six months (depending on how fast you recover that amount). The big price is just like the lottery, millions of dollars, except that the chance of winning is higher. After five years, your chance would be over 80%, assuming you tried relentlessly.

And it can be any model you choose. They all work:

Once you can scale any of these to six figures per month at least, it makes sense to consider low-risk investments.

#2 Commit to your passion

The most rewarding projects often take years before they become successful. You’re going to spend some time and money on it.

Actually, you won’t even do that if it isn’t something you like to do. Whatever business you choose should be fun enough by itself, not because of the reward. Or you won’t make it until that point.

When following your passion, there are four points involved:

There has to be market demand, or it won’t work. It neither works if there are too many sellers satisfying that demand (competition).

To give you an idea, the three big sectors are health, money, and relationships. People will pay you to solve problems around these areas as long as they are (1) relevant, (2) common, and (3) hard to solve.

Ask yourself what you enjoy doing and compare it with the previous point. Do your passions match with something people would pay for? It’s not enough to “make life easier” or others or more comfortable. The problem must be painful enough for people to be worth their money.

Maybe you don’t know what you want. In that case, feel free to browse topics and skills. Try whatever catches your eye first. You can also find out your interests by looking at where you spend your money (which is a form of attention).

Whatever it is, there’s probably someone making money with your passion already. That means it’s possible.

You found something you like that the world wants. But are you good at it? If you aren’t, you might want to niche down or take a variation.

When you get specific, there’s less competition, so it’s easier to be the best in your space.

This is what makes entrepreneurs different from athletes, singers, actors, entertainers, and influencers. Here are examples:

They solved problems people didn’t know they had.

You don’t need to think that big. But if there’s a sector you like, you eventually find a way to reinvent it. And that’s how you beat the competition.

“If I had asked people what they wanted, they would have said faster horses.” — Henry Ford

#3 Passive Income

While it’s exciting to start a business, it would be better to have extra income streams as well. So if a business fails or requires more money, you have other sources to fund it (which is the case of tech companies).

As soon as you earn over $50,000, it’s worth looking into real estate. You get predictable income, resell potential, build up equity, and a favorable tax situation. It’s not the fastest vehicle, but it almost guarantees positive ROI if you’re willing to wait a few years.

If you never tried it before, it can look complex at first. We recommend you check some of our guides, such as how to start an Airbnb business.

No matter what passive income idea you have, you will need some sort of online presence. Ranking a website takes time and consistent work, so make sure to start as early as possible.

#4 Live off your interest

How much do you need to earn to reach the “safe zone?” We use that term to refer to the state where you no longer need to do any work to fund your lifestyle. There are two ways to go about it:

Suppose you have saved $10 million in a savings account that yields 4% per year (~0.33% per month). That’s $33K per month, or $400K per year, which is more than enough to fund your lifestyle. Include emergency expenses and vacations.

If you have compound interest, you will make more and more money as long as you reinvest.

Imagine you had eight years old and you inherited a fund like this. You can know NOTHING about finance. As long as your expenses don’t go beyond your earnings, you will keep earning forever.

#5 Plan for your retirement

It’s not easy to get out of a broke situation. And the last thing you want is to lose that hard-earned money.

Investing in retirement is a safe way to protect that money. You won’t be able to use it today, but you will get an advantageous tax position.

If you don’t want to wait until you’re 59 and a half, you can create your own early retirement plan. Find an appropriate investment vehicle to deliver predictable returns every month. Once you can live off that interest, you don’t have to work another day in your life. And it can happen as soon as in your twenties, even if you’re currently broke.
