Succession Planning
Have you ever thought about what you are going to leave your children when you pass from this earth? Wouldn't it be a great feeling to be able to give them a really good head start in life ? without actually spoiling them? It really doesn't matter how old you are, it's something that you need to be thinking about and planning for now. In the process of planning your inheritance and blessing your children, you are really making YOUR life better and more financially secure because you'll enjoy these benefits before you pass them on. You could really enjoy your retirement instead of having to scrimp and save every dollar. This planning is even more important if you happen to be a farming family ? especially if you have sons or daughters that want to take over the farm when you retire. What are you going to do for income when you hand over all the assets and farm to your children? You'd be in a unique position if you had enough money in the bank to take out enough to live comfortably for the rest of your life. Another consideration is how are you going to make it fair for your other children if 1 gets the farm and all the assets etc? One possible solution is to make the farming child pay out the other children so all amounts are equal. This, however, could result in undue financial pressure on the farmer. So what is another possible solution? I strongly believe that a great solution to creating financial security in both retirement, with the added bonus of providing a fantastic inheritance for your children, is to invest in positive cash flow real estate. Some of the main benefits include: 1. Purchasing real estate with a positive cash flow, resulting in more income to live off NOW 2. There is an excellent prospect of capital growth in real estate (so your assets increase in value, approximately double every 7-10 years) 3. Your repayments to the financial institution will stay the same, but your income goes up with the CPI or whatever rate you decide in the lease. Hence, your income will increase over time without you doing anything, as well as having someone else paying off your loan! 4. If you use a systematic formula to create your wealth, resulting in passive income, then you'll have a comfortable amount to retire on (assuming you continue to invest and reinvest) 5. If you use a systematic formula, you could end up with multiple properties, all returning a positive cash flow. These can be used to fund your retirement as well as give you something of REAL VALUE to pass on to your children. It really is a win / win situation. Many people are sceptical about investing in real estate because they have heard so many failure stories. It's not that hard to get it right. You just need to be shown HOW to find those cash flow positive properties and have the courage and determination to go for it! After all, you could be creating a better lifestyle for yourself now as well as for your children. What a great gift to give them ? a second stream of income, that they don't have to work for. They'll certainly remember you fondly! In conclusion, I hope I have been able to plant the seed of enquiry so that you at least go and learn more about investing in real estate. It might be the most profitable homework you've ever done. A final comment: many think that investing in real estate is for the rich, well that is NOT the case.

Take Control and Master Your Kitchen Those who keep a watchful eye on where their money is spent, have long conquered the kitchen woes. No last minute panic trips to the market. No longer needing the "give-the-kids-$20-for-fast-food" solution. This is no longer a problem or even a concern for the "Kitchen Master". 7 Simple Ways To Save Money Each of us knows how to spend money, but do we really know how to save our money? No, I am not necessarily talking about setting aside funds for an investments purposes ? a good thing ? but saving money on everyday items. Here are seven simple ways you can save money: Creating A Household Budget Creating a budget can be a very difficult task. Although we as consumers know that we need to pay our bills, buy our necessities, and put money away for savings, we don't really know how to start. Want Your Savings to Earn a Higher Rate of Return? Try Internet Banking Doesn't it seem like the only impressive numbers we've seen this summer are the digits on the thermostat and the unaffordable prices of homes? Real estate has been excruciatingly hot for the past few years, but getting in the market now puts you in the high-risk category for a heat stroke if the market decides to cool off this year. 5 Steps to Healthy Spending Habits Next to our physical health most of us are primarily concerned with our financial health, and with good reason. Although our intentions are usually great our follow-through and discipline generally isn't. Mere mention of the word budget or cutback sends us into fits. Saving Money - The Magic 20 Percent Saving money is not easy and is made more difficult if you have a short-term outlook regarding your personal finances. If, like many people, you are living from one pay cheque to the next, it is difficult to put some money aside for a rainy day or for a summer holiday. But what if you were to change your financial outlook into a medium to long-term one? You might believe that you cannot afford to think ahead and make plans, but in most cases you would be wrong. Most people should be able to save some money and with some effort, maybe even as much as 20 percent of their salary each month. Income AnalysisFirst of all it is important to have a handle on where your income is going. Unless, we are on an extremely tight budget or are very money conscious for other reasons, many of us have never really sat down and considered what our money is being spent on ? we just know that by the end of the month, it has all gone! You will know if you are consistently spending your money on unnecessary purchases, for example. Having this knowledge equips you with the control to change things a little or a lot.Saving Money MentalityMany people have never been taught to save and as children, immediately spent the money they received without any forethought. You often hear people say, "Life is short, if you want something buy it now", but thankfully for most of us life is not really so short and along the way we will have to deal with both opportunities and challenges. Having some money saved will help you make the most of the opportunities and ride the challenges. Savings ? Seeing the Big PictureIf you could save 20 percent of your salary each month, imagine what that would mean in real financial terms. For example, if you earn 2000 dollars per month and you saved 20 percent or 400 dollars out of every pay cheque, after 12 months you will have saved 4800 dollars! Regularly saving this amount of money would give you the financial freedom to take advantage of more of life's opportunities. You could plan the special holiday you have always wanted to go on, buy the car that you have been dreaming about for years, or help put a child through college. When it comes to life's challenges, having a lump sum put away could help you pay for private medical care or deal with an expensive plumbing problem in the home, all without having to turn to the bank for a loan and getting into debt. How Can it Be Done? As we have already seen, knowing exactly where your money is going is the starting point. Next, start thinking about the big things you could achieve with some money in the bank. Some people compensate themselves for not having what they really want, by making many frequent small purchases and getting a temporary "feel good" sensation afterwards. Rather than satisfying yourself with small purchases, such as new clothes and CDs every week or always buying the latest mobile phone, think about how much more satisfying it would be to save up and buy or do something special, which you previously thought was out of your reach, but is achievable with a little effort.
