Book Description
Financial security tomorrow requires that you make sensible investment decisions today. Unless you have been saving and investing hard all these years, for yourself rather than just for your children and parents, where will your retirement funds come from? From your CPF savings? There is a chance that you would not have enough.
What about winning the lottery? Your chances are as good as finding a two-legged dog. And this is probably the worst situation you can find yourself in - when you have to depend on others to support you in your retirement years. That's why learning to invest is so important. For many people, it could make the difference between a blissful retirement and a painful one. This book will show you just how to make your money work for you.
Structured to cover a wide range of today's relevant topics, this easy-to-use guide gives answers to these questions and more:
• How do I accumulate a million dollars?
