Start taking your money seriously today!

avatar

In this day and age, we are constantly bombarded with financial messages. Between the TV, ads on the Internet, and our friends and family - there are always some vibes going around about money. When you combine all of these messages it becomes difficult to filter out what matters.

The problem is compounded when people don't take financial education seriously - which leads them to believe that they should be not as concerned about their wealth as others. They think that maybe such a thing is for those who are more serious or better with money - not for them.

But in reality, most of us don't even know how much we are worth or where we stand in our finances so how can you be serious about something you don't know anything about? You can't be!

In the right sense, our financial education should have started at a young age where we would have been taught about saving for retirement and understanding the value of money. But even though we were or weren't taught, as we got older, it is up to us to have this education to achieve our financial goals.

People that take their financial education seriously are more likely to get more serious about building their wealth and making their money work harder for them. It can be difficult if you don't know where to start, but taking small steps will help pave the way toward success.

Investing is one of the most important things you need to take seriously because it accounts for everything else in your life happening outside of your finances like real estate, stocks, bonds, retirement funds, cryptocurrency, etc. The earlier that you start investing in these areas, the better off you'll be in your later years.

First of all, take your financial education seriously. Grant Cordone has said if you don’t take your education seriously, you’ll never have serious money. Ask questions, read and research about it. Never be afraid to ask for help from someone that has been in the industry for a long time and has achieved financial success.

Secondly, always be serious about building wealth. It doesn’t matter if your goal is $5 million or $5 billion – you need to have a plan laid out for what exactly needs to happen to get there. All too often people are lazy and only work on their wealth when they reach a certain milestone (i.e., first paycheck). This is backward thinking because the earlier you start working on your wealth, the less time it will take to become financially successful later in life.

Thirdly, get serious about investing! The best way to make money grow is by investing it into areas where it can make more money like stocks

It's easy to think of money as an important thing you need for your survival, but the reality is that money is a resource we use to achieve our goals. Being serious about money means taking it seriously and putting in the work required to get ahead.

We should not be afraid of making ourselves uncomfortable from time to time if it means achieving our long-term goals. Be reminded that if you don't get serious about your money you'll never have serious money and you should enrich your mind with things that will help you take your financial education seriously, be serious about building wealth, and get serious about investing.

It is diminishing to see how many people are still not taking their financial education seriously and how they react when it comes to investing. Many people think that money is a topic that only belongs in the hands of bankers and accountants, but that’s just not true. We all need to be aware of our finances to make them work for us, not against us.

The reality is that people who try to ' get rich quick' are often doomed to failure. One thing everyone should do is get as much information about finance as possible – this includes learning about debt, loans and credit cards, property and shares, taxes, and insurance.

You should start taking your financial education seriously. Nowadays you can find more than enough resources for that - from books to podcasts and videos. But the most important thing is, to be honest with yourself about what you need and what you want to achieve. Financial advisers recommend studying personal finances for at least two hours per week.

The second step would be to make sure that you’re not just living for the moment but are building wealth by saving, investing, and taking your money seriously. It's crucial not only to think about how much you’ve got but also making it work for you by investing it wisely to create more wealth out of it.

Great financial talk as always. @iskafan Your insight is refreshing and brilliant. I love all the points you’ve shared with us. Anyone who is interested in building wealth must do so consciously and that starts from acquiring the right knowledge and information and making difficult decisions that may not offer gratification instantly but would be greatly rewarding in the future.

Yes you are right. We need build our wealth by saving. Some of us don't have that habits of savings.
