The Millionaire's Retirement Plan.

The Millionaire's Retirement Plan.

If you're just entering the workforce, retirement probably seems like a lifetime away. A million dollars by retirement? That's someone else's dream, right? It doesn't have to be. Here is the millionaire's retirement plan. For these calculations, assume an average annual return of 8%, adjusted for inflation at 3% - a reasonable estimate of average market returns.

Age 25: A Good Beginning
You're 25 and landed that first job on your career ladder - congratulations! Before you start living to your new paycheck's standards, budget your retirement savings. If you have a KWSP plan that matches your contributions, use it! These matching dollars are like a guaranteed return on investment. If you don't have a matching KWSP, look for a mutual fund through an investment firm with low fees; many now offer target funds, which allocate your investment risk with your targeted retirement year in mind - great for a beginning investor.
Plan to start by saving about RM200 a month to reach your millionaire goal; increasing this monthly amount by RM10 annually as you get a raise or promotion will only speed up your saving.

Age 35: Rolling Along
By now you have saved about RM45,000 and you've grown in your career with a bigger paycheck, but often, family commitments like children and a mortgage will seem more pressing than saving for your golden years. Don't make the mistake of slowing down your retirement savings. By now, you should ramp up your contributions to about RM400 a month - remember that a matching KWSP will help you in attaining this amount.
If you have kids and worry about saving for their college, look at it this way: the best way to help them in the future is by ensuring you're financially sound in retirement. Make saving for retirement a priority.

Age 45: Holding Steady
You're mid-career, and things are looking good in your retirement portfolio. Your savings have grown to about RM160,000 - not bad, but it still isn't quite time to slow down. Increase your retirement contributions to about RM450 a month or more, and you'll be rolling your way to millionaire status by 65.

Age 55: Close to the Finish Line
By age 55, your retirement portfolio should be at RM400,000 or so. You can start to see the finish line, but begin to wonder about risk. If you've been investing in a target fund, your portfolio has been adjusting its allocation for you; otherwise, look at adjusting some of your investments to reflect a lower risk tolerance. And remember: your income at, say, age 70 won't be withdrawn for another 15 years - plenty of time to ride out market fluctuations.

At age 55, expect to really ramp up your retirement contributions, to roughly RM600 a month, and more if you can manage it. The more you save, the sooner you can leave the nine-to-five behind.

Age 65: Prudent Asset Management
You're at the finish line: a millionaire at 65! Since you have no way to add to your savings now that you're out of the workplace, prudent asset management is vital. Keep a close eye on your portfolio so you can make your nest egg last. Protect yourself against inflation as well as market risk, and you'll be enjoying your golden years without financial worries.

With steady savings and smart financial habits, you can retire a millionaire - maybe even before you're 65.

Rahsia Kekayaan

Rahsia Kekayaan

Sama ada anda ingin melabur dalam saham atau melabur dalam pelbagai kelas aset , dana unit amanah menyediakan anda dengan satu faedah yang boleh menjadi sangat sukar bagi pelabur individu untuk mencapai - kepelbagaian.



Ramai orang melabur tetapi hanya beberapa menjadi kaya. Mengapa ?

Kesilapan ramai orang membuat apabila mereka melihat pelaburan mereka iaitu menyimpan.

Menyimpan VS Pelaburan

Jadi, apakah perbezaan antara penjimatan dan melabur ? Penjimatan adalah apa yang anda lakukan untuk membina dana untuk sesuatu, seperti bercuti, dan apabila anda mempunyai jumlah yang disimpan anda mengeluarkan modal anda dari pelaburan anda dan membelanjakannya pada cuti. Selepas cuti anda mempunyai apa yang tinggal , dan memulakan proses sekali lagi.

Tetapi membina kekayaan adalah berbeza. Orang yang ingin membina kekayaan melabur wang mereka untuk jangka masa panjang dalam 'aset pertumbuhan' seperti saham dan hartanah.

Strategi mereka adalah untuk menghabiskan pendapatan pelaburan yang menghasilkan, tetapi untuk meninggalkan modal yang dilaburkan. Mereka tidak mengeluarkan modal, jadi ia kekal di sana berkembang dan mengkompaun , dan menghasilkan lebih banyak pendapatan setiap tahun.

Jika anda melakukan ini, ia akan membawa anda beberapa lama lagi pada mulanya untuk sampai ke matlamat pelaburan anda, tetapi dalam jangka masa panjang anda akan mendapati bahawa penantian tambahan telah berbaloi. Seperti tahun-tahun berlalu , anda akan mempunyai peningkatan aliran pendapatan tambahan daripada pelaburan anda dan taraf hidup anda boleh meningkat dengan sewajarnya !Sekiranya saya terus mengekalkan modal dalam persaraan ?

Mengekalkan modal anda adalah satu strategi yang baik untuk digunakan untuk pengumpulan kekayaan. Sudah tentu apabila anda berhenti bekerja di kemudian hari, strategi anda mungkin berubah. Pada ketika itu ia selalunya boleh memberi manfaat kepada anda dalam menjalani kehidupan yang selesa.
