How Secure Is Your Wealth Plan?

By Peter Werth

With the recession affecting many people both in the UK and USA, there will be more and more people either looking for a job or at how stable theirs is. It can be a real eye opener when a person realizes that the days of a job for life are perhaps a thing of the past.

What if one day, unexpectedly, you are ‘down sized’, ‘cut loose’, ‘let go’. Call it what you like, but you find yourself without a job, without income. I know how it feels, it happened to me.

So why not access your actual job or former job, what was the pay, what was your outgoings getting to work, lunch and long have you spent getting to the position your in. Be as honest as you can be, but work out what your real take home pay was. This then gives you a figure to look at replacing or better still increasing on. You will have to access what your economic comfort zone is for you and your family, all taking part in it, because you will need your partners support I’m sure during a change.

Healthcare, travel and insurances will be significant expenses in your budget. It is for these reasons that you will need a reasonable, steady and reliable source of income to enable you maintain an enjoyable lifestyle during your retirement years.

What about starting your own business? This seems to be the next logical, and in most cases, the better choice. Whether you choose to start a home based business, a service business or online business, you must make a choice.

Multiple streams of income are imperative, not just for survival, but in order to secure your future. So start now, make the decision that you will develop other ways of producing income for you and your family.

Some debt is good e.g. house mortgage and education loan. Just make sure the interest rate is fixed and payments are affordable. Remember to shop around for the lowest interest rate and the shortest payback time.

The third floor is income management. Is income from your investments large enough for you to live on? If the other floors are taken care of and your answer is yes, then your house is complete. You are financially independent. You can stop working for money and start enjoying life. If your answer is no, then pull up your sleeves and get to work.
