How do I ensure a comfortable lifestyle?
Many people dream of travelling, exploring and touring the world, hanging out with friends for coffee, lunches and high tea when they eventually stop working… They also may want to be able to continue to drive a car, shop and dine wherever and whenever they would like to.. Basically, a person’s lifestyle should not end when a person stops working and retires. In fact, studies have shown that they may actually spend more than when they were working because they did not have the time to do all that.
This sounds like a dream life, and the reality is that it costs some money. And inflation and longevity is not going to make it any easier for you.
Just to give you an example, if you are now 35 years old and would like to have a lifestyle of $4000 a month in today’s context, with a projected inflation rate of 2.5%. This same lifestyle would be $8390 a month by the time you turn 65 years old! And if you do happen to live for another 20 years, that figure that you would need by the age of 65 will probably be at least in the region of a couple of million dollars because the cost of living will still continue to escalate past the age of 65. That is just unimaginable for many people! Of course, I am over-simplifying the calculations because I have not added your other assets you have built over the years, but that figure will not be too far away from the truth.
So the question is how are you going to get to that couple of million by the age of 65?
We use CORETM strategies that build large amounts of wealth in a way that is evidence-based, reliable, sustainable and gets you to the goals in the highest possibility of getting you there. All these are done without need for speculation and gives you an ability to grow wealth with reduced anxiety through an appreciation of risk and volatility. But it takes 2 hands to clap along this journey.
Just to give you another example, if a person had set aside $100,000 at age of 35, with an addition of $1500 a month till the age of 65, with a projected compounded effect of 6%, it will get the person to a projection of almost $2million by then with the power of compounding effect! Every person’s situation is different and we will help you plan out what is practical and possible, customized to your personal circumstance. Sometimes, it might mean starting smaller and increasing the additions as you progress with time, but we will find ways to structure something to get you there. At least, even if you do not get to the moon, you will be at least amongst the stars.
