Final Steps
Wrapping up
When people start a business, they need a business plan, a financial forecast and a strong understanding of the competitive market that you're entering into. Whilst it's not essential, most business fail if they lack an undrestanding of these basic principals. The sad truth is that most people have little to no planning of their personal finances. At Moolaplan, we challenge you to consider your personal finances as your very own business. Give it some time in setting up your financial structure and a little time each month to maintain and monitor and you're far more likely to achieve your financial goals.
Is Moolaplan a get-rich scheme? Absolutely not! Is it hard? It will take commitment and an ability to adjust where necessary, but it's easy and rewarding when you get into the swing of it. Again consider your long-term goals. Lets say that in 20 years time you are debt free you reach your goal of say 1 million dollars in income generating assets at a minimum 10% return. That's a neat $100,000 a year you and your partner can live off when you retire for the rest of your lives.
We wish you and your family the very best with your financial future and good luck!
