My mom has been telling me about this since my teens but it didn't hit me till my coworker and I were talking and she said this time in my life..should be used for investing.
Then what really pushed me over the edge was my friend who said the company she's with said that they'll help her be a millionaire by the time she's 40.... And that was when it all clicked.
And I started researching and asking my mom for information ...I even got another friend to start looking into investing in bonds...
Its amazing how just knowing one thing can set off a light bulb and cause a positive chain reaction.
Talking about this gave me so much hope, that's its possible to not live paycheck to paycheck or even struggle. Just be responsible with money and I'm starting now. ( hearing a young man who became a millionaire working dominos by simply saving was inspiring to me...had to add that in there lol)
By cutting out fast-food ( especially since I'm trying to lose weight), and setting money aside starting next week...when I get my degree in occupational therapy look for a hospital that has a penchant plan... And learn how to budget, have fun money for fun events to do for the month and what not.
All of this just gave me hope that I can break that nasty cycle of poverty and be well off, I don't have to be like my brother who will be 30 something working minimum wage with nothing to show for it...
And most importantly I can take care of my family. My mom won't be here forever so I have to think about my youngest brother ...and my other ones too. Especially my older one whose being swindled by my pastor aunt, it would be nice to save so much money that I can take care of him too...even though someone used god to manipulate him and he can't wake up from the brainwashing...he has me to fall back on... Though he didn't have the best life..at least he can have a comfortable end.
And that would make me happier than anything...to take care of my family
So just talking about this has put a smile on my face and changed my mood earlier.
And also thinking about other things I want to do, activity wise..like yoga, or maybe taking dance classes ... Its nice how just sitting down problem solving can help make you happier...
Its funny because I watched a video about how problem solving can be a key to happiness and it didn't hit me till just now.
I'm also proud of myself because my resolution for 2017 was to learn more ( things like this investment and just in general)
I know the difference between a 401k and a 403b.... And I was able to tell my coworker about a new law that was passed in Texas
So I'm defintely progressing .... Its just I have to be patient.. Just .keep. Going.
And just breathe.
But its nice to be covered in the physical world, by learning for to save and invest... And in the spiritual by trusting in God. How amazing is it to not want for anything financially, have student loans paid for, retirement set and be on your way to heaven?
Sounds like the sweetest deal ever...
And I feel blessed right now...
Its all sinking in and I feel elated.
Now I'm gonna study more about investment and other things
Till again
