Financial Goals

Occasionally we will see some financial “guru” telling us that most people are too busy earning a living to make any real money. While that may be true, many do not view making real money as being the end all, be all, and consider leading a balanced life, simple life, and/or spiritual life to be of equal or greater value.

Financial goals take many forms. They make involve having enough money to last you and your spouse or partner as long as you live, plus having additional amounts to accomplish other items on your life list. They may include having enough insurance to cover emergency medical and other expenses. You may also want enough extra cash to distribute to loved ones, charities, and other causes along the way and when you die. Or you may have really big goals, involving the need to accumulate huge sums in order to accomplish.

Making, accumulating, investing, and holding on to money are four related by distinctly different skill sets. It is rare that one individual has the ability to excel at all four. Often good training, advice, and tools are needed to help you accomplish each and all.

Your life list goals may include some big purchases or gifts. You may want to endow a chair at a college, or put a bench in a local park. You may want to set up a trust for a grandchild, or buy them a bike. Your goals are your own, based on your resources and desires. The important thing is to both have and work towards those goals, so they are, in fact, accomplished.
