HOW TO BUILD FOR RETIREMENT – Premium Finance Services
Everyone asks the question but very few people are prepared to do what it takes to make it all happen, Wealth does not come to you by itself, you have to actually do something to attract it.

Wealth is built up over time. In fact it requires many years of diligent investing to create wealth. The most difficult thing though is to do, to take the first step to invest. It takes courage to step out of your comfort zone and do something about your future. Rich people tend to be more courageous than poor people. Poor people tend to be more analytical than rich people! Wow, that’s a big statement isn’t it? I’m not talking about all the rich and all the poor. No I’m talking about those in society who you would...
read moreLaw of Supply and Demand
The Law of Supply and Demand exists in economics but it also exists in the natural world. If there is a demand the supply will come. If demand exceeds supply then the price will be higher. This occurs because of the industrious nature of the human condition to make money from an opportunity. This is a concept we are all familiar with but when it comes to supplying our needs for retirement we pay scant regard to the demand that our retirement years will have on the available supply of our own funds. If we fail to make adequate supply for...

And it does not look good for most of us who are approaching our twilight years. Did you know that life expectancy in Australia is extending by three months each year? That’s not bad going for a developed society that, not too long ago, many had assumed had almost reached the longevity limit. It is also terrific news to those of us hoping for a long and healthy life. But it...

Fear is the boogie man or fear is being on the edge of a high cliff or fear is being alone in the dark but in reality fear is; False Expectations Appearing Real. When the stakes are low and there is no pressure, things are easy but if there is a large sum of money riding on the outcome all of a sudden the pressure mounts, fear of loss appears real and the easy becomes difficult. Yet we will willingly jump into the car and roar off without a second thought that we have just engaged in the deadliest thing that most of us will do today, drive a...
