It shocked me to learn that it is not just in my home country that people struggle in their old age. And my opinion with the economy going the rate it is goo ng it gets more difficult for people to provide for their old age. More and more people are relying on a second income, and then they still have difficulty providing for today let alone the future.

I realized that I should think about myself, whether what do I really love because there is nothing more fulfilling by working on a job that I love because it will create a great impact on how my future will be in my retirement. While I'm still young, I must start to carefully plan for my future retirement and what should I do to my investments and insurances.

The most potent lesson for me was intentionality when it comes to planning. Financial freedom and stability aren't accidental. They must be actively worked towards. Another major lesson was the importance of striking a personal balance between spontaneity and being future-minded. Leaning too much on one side robs a person of the benefits of the other.

One Lesson I definitely picked from this book is that one must certainly have a fall-back plan and cannot rely entirely on just his employment or salary income.

I learned that we should enjoy our lives while we can you never know the hardships you may face. Whatever you do put into consideration if it makes you happy if it does do it.

One of the most important lessons I took away from this book was that making investments in assets while you're still working can ensure you have a comfortable retirement when you're older.

This book opened my eye to one of the most important aspects of one's life, which is the future as we mostly focus on the present. Planning for the future has a way of curbing certain challenges and obstacles.

The difference between this book and others was evident from the first pages, and I was surprised to agree with almost everything the author discussed. One thing that stuck with me was that we shouldn't see retirement as a stop to any kind of work, and also learned to not keep thinking about the future that it causes us to forget the present.

I learnt that age doesn’t stop you from being happy and having fun. Make plans right from the beginning and that plan will carry you through every face of your life.

I have learnt that one should work hard for his retirement, but at the same time we should be smart enough to plan for the later years.

I learned that we should learn to live! Enjoy the days and moments as they come, as much as we desire to work and plan for the future, we must strive to make the necessary sacrifices to live in the moment.
