Posted January 12, 2009 by Bernz

Will you use your gym membership? Will you stop smoking? Will you eat healthier foods, spend less, save more, be kinder. Show up to work on time and not call in sick when you just want to sleep in?

2009new1What goals will you make for the New Year and stay disciplined until you achieve them?

A sorry economy, the drawn out war…so many things affect our moods and attitudes and energy level, it can be an amazing accomplishment just to get up in the morning and get dressed.

I’ve given up on making New Year’s resolutions rather each year I focus on setting goals that relate to specific areas in my life. For instance there’s health, business, finance, and family. I write down at least three things that I want to achieve.

Financial Goals, You Have Those Right?

Posted November 1, 2008 by Bernz

The media is really making a big deal about the stock market right now and how much money people are losing. However, those with clear set financial goals are not sweating at all or certainly a lot less.

At each stage of life we have different goals and different plans. These all usually involve money, so you have to balance these investments around your cash allocation, income, and your age. Setting your financial goals should involve two steps.

By Nadav Dov Boretzki

Step one: Where are we in life?

Are you going to stay where you are? Do you have any school plans? Are you married, single, engaged? Are you planning on buying a house? Sometimes it feels like we need a financial planner to aid us in figuring all this out, but in effect you need to gauge where you are going or where you want to be in the next 5-10 years. If you are going back to school, plan for more debt, if you are buying a house, then plan for large down payment, and so on and so on. Risk capital can be a great vehicle to achieving these goals.

Set your financial goals. It’s your money, use it to your advantage!

Step two: Time to distribute the money

So now its time to take your income deduct living expenses (see my article on a spending plan), and then use those savings to grow and achieve your financial goals. Using this plan, you can plan your large purchases and see how soon you can be in that new neighborhood, or in that new dream job that you have always wanted.
