Self Improvement Tip of the Day: How Secure Is Your Financial Future? (cont)

It’s a sad fact that most people working for wages are no more than one or two paychecks away from bankruptcy, as they live from one payday to the next and have little or no savings. It is essential to save regularly, to make adequate health and unemployment insurance a priority, and to make provision for a comfortable retirement. This is just as important for employers, the self-employed and entrepreneurs. If not, there is the very real risk of losing everything you’ve worked long and hard for.

I’m not suggesting for a minute that money is a panacea, or that having plenty of it guarantees happiness or solves all problems. At the other extreme, there are many people that become obsessed with the pursuit of money at the exclusion of everything else.

Balance is certainly required, but it's reasonable to suggest that most people would find life easier if they didn’t have to worry about money, particularly as the they get older.

At the end of the day, everyone has to make their own decision whether or not to take the actions and make the plans for a secure future for themselves and their families. There are options - leave it to someone else, or just take your chances and hope for the best.
