    20. Timing of Financial Goals Short-term – up to 1 year “or so” Intermediate-term – 2 to 5 years Long-term – more than 5 years

    21. Financial Goal: Example Pay off VISA Balance: $3,500 Time frame: Within 12 months Actions to be taken Reduce dating and clubbing to twice a month Cancel cable service and mobile phone Stop buying coffee at FiveBuck$ Pay extra $300 per month Priority: High

    26. The Financial Goal of Most Americans Spend everything that you earn!

    27. The Most Important Financial Goal! Spend less than you earn!

    28. The Most Important Financial Goal! Pay Yourself First By having the money come out of your paycheck or checking account automatically, most individuals easily adjust to investing Works like a pay raise, only in reverse The 10% Solution Many financial planners recommend saving at least 10% of your income for long-term, compounded growth The Wealthy Barber, David Chilton

    29. “The magic of compound interest. Thirty dollars a month, a dollar a day, can magically turn into over a million dollars. And do you know what is even more impressive? You know someone who has done it,” Roy, our barber, said proudly. “Thirty-five years ago, I started my savings with thirty dollars a month, approximately 10% of my earnings. I have achieved just under 13% return per year. In addition, as my income rose, my savings rose accordingly. Thirty dollars a month became sixty dollars, then a hundred, and eventually hundreds of dollars a month.” “You three are looking at a very wealthy man.” The Most Important Financial Goal!

    30. “One of my early students only followed the ‘Pay Yourself 10% First’ lesson. He bought the wrong life insurance, abused credit cards, overpaid for his mortgage, did not take advantage of his 401(k) at work, and lost all $15,000 of an inheritance playing the commodities market.” “This is a real upbeat, encouraging story, Roy,” said Tom. “Today, his net worth is $850,000, Tom. $300,000 of it is the equity in his house but the rest is his 10% savings.” “He did everything else wrong but –” Cathy started. “Because he had saved 10% of each paycheck and invested it for long-term, compounded growth, today he is in great shape,” Roy finished. The Most Important Financial Goal!

    31. The Rule of 72

    32. Simple versus Compound Interest Simple Interest Interest = Principal * Rate * Time Interest = $100 * 6% * 1 year = $6.00 In one year you have $106 ($100 + $6.00)

    33. Time Value of Money

    34. Future Value of Money The amount to which a sum you invest now will increase based on a specified interest rate and time period Future value is also called compounding Future value can be computed for a single amount – a.k.a. a lump sum or principal Future value can also be determined for a series of deposits – a.k.a. stream of investments, “annuity”

    35. Future value formula for Lump Sum Principal Future Value of Money

    36. Present Value of Money The current value for a future amount based on a certain interest rate and a certain time period Present value is also called discounting Present value of a single lump sum Present value of a series of withdrawals

    37. Present value formula for Lump Sum Present Value of Money

    39. Hope For Your Future

    40. Financial Aspects of Career Planning A Job – An employment position obtained mainly to earn money, without regard for interests or opportunities for advancement A Career – A commitment to a profession that requires continued training and offers a clear path for occupational growth

    41. How Education Relates to Income

    42. Service Industries Expected to Have the Greatest Employment Potential Computer Technology Health Care Business Services Social Services Sales and Retailing Hospitality and Food Services Management and Human Resources Education Financial Services

    43. But What Is Your Career Goal? Most people believe you must become a doctor or lawyer or high-powered executive to become wealthy But what if you want to be a writer or a teacher or an artist or a janitor or mechanic or plumber? Can you become wealthy while doing what you love... Even if it does not command a large salary? As we saw, the answer is, “Yes!”

    44. What is Your Most Important Financial Decision? Who You Marry!

    45. The Millenials Go To Work “They are ambitious, they are demanding and they question everything, so if there is not a good reason for that long commute or late night, do not expect them to do it. When it comes to loyalty, the companies they work for are last on their list – behind their families, their friends, their communities, their co-workers and, of course, themselves. But there are a whole lot of them. And as the baby-boomers begin to retire, triggering a … worker shortage, businesses are realizing that they may have no choice but to accommodate these curious Gen Y creatures. Especially because if they do not, the creatures will simply go home to their parents, who in all likelihood will welcome them back.”

    46. “Choose a job you love, and you will never have to work a day in your life.” Could not have said it better myself…
