Savings and investment are inter-related. Savings can be used as the capital for investment while investment is an important step for financial planning. By selecting an appropriate investment tools according to each individual’s financial goal and risk tolerance level, the probability of earning the expected return can be largely increased, and thus help sustaining wealth accumulation and avoid the capital being eroded in the time of high inflation.
For example:
Let’s assume a person invests $1000 per month with an annual investment return of 5%, different results are as follow:
If we start saving five years earlier, the amount difference of initial investment will only account for $60,000. However, at the age of 65, the amount difference of the accumulated total initial investment and interest will increase to 34%. Therefore, it proves that we should start saving as early as possible! An efficient financial planning can help you achieve wealth success and thus lead to a carefree life. Clients can select different investment tools according to their financial goals and risk tolerance level.
