If you are one of the many people out there who are desperate to learn how to retire at 55, then time is of the essence, especially if you are 35 or older.
The clock keeps ticking for everyone, and anyone in their golden years and beyond will tell you that it seems like yesterday when they were young.
It zips by in a flash. The older you get, the faster things seem to pass you by.
If you procrastinate, keep putting it off, can’t get up off the couch or put down the remote control…
You’re…
toast.
Don’t believe me? Try it some time. Problem is, if you take me up on that, game over. Too late for you, my friend.
Don’t let that happen. Oh, and don’t believe the stuff about putting away the savings from your job. Saving for retirement is one of the biggest scams out there. Forget about all of the talk about this scam or that scam. Forget about the warnings about so called pyramid and ponzie schemes.
Working that J.O.B., which really stands for “just over broke”. I know I know. Laugh it up. I realize that that term has become cliche because so many network and mlm marketers use it in their presentations to get people to consider pursuing a second stream of income gig, BUT IT’S SOOOOOOO TRUE.
Make the How to Retire at 55 Dream a Reality
Let’s just look at the savings route. If you have been saving diligently, utilizing a compounding interest investment vehicle(s) for years, maybe you are approaching your goal value. Then again, if you plan to retire young, then you are going to have to start withdrawing that money, after taxes.
How long to you suppose it’s going to last?
Once you start withdrawing, your principal gets less and less and so does the interest on a lower principal amount.
If you’re not careful you’re going to end up broke.
I mean, is THIS the plan that the government and investment adviser communities are telling people to rely on? That’s pretty dicey if you ask me.
Really???
What’s that I hear?
In case you haven’t been looking around, most people are losing their pensions. Most companies no longer offer a company pension plan to supplement employees’ retirement. The government did everyone a big favor there with IRA’s and 401K’s (not).
They have the nerve to call network marketing and the like, scams?
The only real scam here is the huge game that the government and the corporate machine has played on the employees.
I mean, forget about this how to retire at 55 stuff, most people aren’t going to be able to retire period unless they take drastic and massive action NOW.
I’m deadly serious about that.
So what is left? Roll over and die?
No. You just gotta do what you gotta do.
Be Careful of the Wise Sage Advice Out There
Most of these investment advisers out there will give you the same old boring line that you have to invest conservatively, as much as you can. Eat nothing but macaroni and save everything. Oh, and make sure that you invest it with them so that they can get hefty commissions and eat Prime Grade A steak.
Screw that.
You have to find a way to INCREASE YOUR CASH FLOW, and drastically.
Then you will have the extra income to live better AND invest heavily.
You’re lucky though.
Why?
Previous generations had no other option but to follow the safe (bad) advice. They also had a measure of safety though. They had pensions. Cost of living was cheaper. They didn’t have the subscription based model of everything that we have today.
Today you rent everything. Cell phone, TV (cable,satellite, phone company fiber optic), cars (lease) – almost everything is rented on time, and those are monthly bills.
Is it any wonder that there is precious little left over to invest?
The old timers owned their own cars, because cars were cheaper, they usually owned their homes and had them paid in 30 years, they didn’t live beyond their means. No cell phones, and TV came in through the rabbit ears.
Some of you youngins won’t even know what that means.
Those old timers didn’t even have a concept of or care to know how to retire at 55, but they probably would have had an easier time of it than we do today.
Okay okay so I paint a dire picture. I hope that you don’t think that I am exaggerating to scare people into taking the action that I want them to take because I am dead serious about all of that. These are the very same thoughts, pondering, fears, and conclusions that I came to which got me up from my lazy fat ass and spurned me into action. It wasn’t just fear over retirement.
It was also being sick of having too much month left at the end of the paycheck.
So What Did I Decide to Pursue?
After MUCH research and past experience with various network marketing type programs, I came to the educated conclusion that the single best way for the regular person to make a sizable second income, which can grow to eclipse the full time income, is through network and multi level marketing.
BUT WAIT A SECOND!
I don’t mean the kind where you have to hit up your family and friends or have home or hotel parties.
That’s so 1980’s.
We have the internet today, which is the pipe to the world. It is the single biggest invention and game changer since the invention of the printing press.
The internet is the great equalizer, and it puts the power of cheap mass communication and advertising potential into the hands of ANYONE with an internet connected computer and some basic knowledge.
So, instead of writing it all out again, you NEED to go visit some of my other posts to see what kinds of marketing products will teach you how to break into this business the cheap but effective way, and then see the amazing compensation plan which is tied to the resale of these products.
These products do not exist merely to resell themselves.
They teach the SKILL and TRADE of INTERNET MARKETING which fulfills that old Biblical quote that states that if you give a man a fish you feed him for a day, but if you teach him to fish you feed him for a lifetime.
Well, if you learn how to fish for people on the internet on my team, then you will, with work, study, knowledge, action, and persistence, be able to have enough to live on and put away enough so that you can finally solve the how to retire at 55 conundrum.
I’m a real person on a real mission, and this stuff really works.. I created this blog all by myself and under the guidance of my buddy who is absolutely crushing it better than I am with a very similar little blog just like this one.
You can join in, have some fun, and get paid…
Or you can wait for the retirement account to (hopefully) have enough to last you a few years.
Your choice.
Until next time…
Always your friend…
