7 Habits that can lead to Future Wealth

Unless you expect to win the lottery, or inherit the estate of a wealthy aunt, or write a killer app that Google or Amazon pays several million dollars to acquire - it is unlikely that you will get wealthy overnight.

Forget about the rags-to-riches stories. Most of them are really that - stories. People who are wealthy have put in a lot of time and effort to achieve their successful financial status.

If you wish to own a tree that will bear delicious fruits for many years, you won't be able to just buy it. You need to buy a sapling from a nursery, plant it, water it, fertilise it, protect it from the elements for several years before it can bear fruits.

To build wealth for the future, you need to make long-term plans and have a disciplined approach towards saving and investing. It is possible to do it on your own. But it is better if you seek advice from an experienced financial planner.

Sarah Chandler explains 7 habits that can lead to future wealth in an article in investopedia.com. Read it here.
