Ok, this is a big statement, to get started we have to understand some eroding factors which take our money every day.
Who takes our money?
Financial institutions
Government
Corporations
Financial Institutions
They build financial products, intended to protect, store, or grow your money. These institutions are profit making businesses.
Corporations
Make consumer products you need and want. LED HD TVs, iphones, cars, etc.
Since there is always something better, you need to replace things. TVs are an example. I weill never forget a Doctor I saw (not saving enough) with a large flat screen TV by the kitchen table and asked him what happen to his TV. “Nothing, I got a bigger one.” He pointed to a new much larger TV that seemed to take up half his wall!
Governments
We all know property taxes go up every year! How about HST in Ontario? User fees? For your income tax 2010 CRA says inflation only went up by .6%! Personal amounts only went up by .6%?! You are getting poorer as long as inflation goes higher that what the government is prepared to allow you!
More to come soon!
