Invest As Early As You Can

One of the main reasons why we need to start investing as early as we can is to fight INFLATION.

Inflation is the rise in prices commodities. Yearly, we do have inflation rate. Inflation decreases the purchasing power of our money. The tricky bit to remember is that with rising prices, we get corresponding decrease in purchasing power. In 1989, jeepney fare in Metro Manila was only P1.00 .Today minimum jeepney transport fare is P8.00.

Now that we know about inflation, it is very important to educate ourselves when it comes to investing. You should invest in a type of investment that could provide you an interest rate at least higher than the inflation rate. If the annual inflation rate is 5%, then you must find an investment that will give you a yield or return at least 6%. In that way, the purchasing power of your money is preserved and you could have earned an additional income too.

Everything in the world changes with TIME.  The saying "the early bird catches the worm" is true when it comes to investments. You cannot get rich overnight. You need time for your investments to grow. The earlier you started, the higher the chances of getting better returns for your hard earned money. Let's take a look on Pesos and Sense Educational Video:




Time is passing by. You don't want to waste it and ponder one day when your old enough why you never started. TIME is Money! You've got to start building your investments now! not tomorrow, not next week, not next year, but NOW!
