The key to success can be summed up in two words: hard work. The real secret is to work hard all day and go to school at night. You must improve your education and make yourself more marketable to potential employers. Also, read the book "The Millionaire Next Door"... it tells just how regular people have achieved a million dollars or more in net worth due to hard work. Consider those tough jobs others don't want to do... like masonry, painting, electrical, plumbing, computer networking, etc. The only place you will find "success" before "work" is in the dictionary. Good luck... work hard... study hard... earn more and achieve your dreams. By the way, be sure to see an investment representative at your bank so your money works just as hard as you do.

- Your firm should operate a pension scheme so start contributing to this for yourself.
- Open up a savings account (ISA's are best as they are tax free) and set up a direct debit each month on the day you get paid so you never actually see the money (and are tempted to spend it instead)
- If you can afford it, then get on the property ladder. It is tough but some mortgage providers like Northern Rock do 100% fixed rate deals for first-time buyers if you do not have enough for a deposit.
Good luck.

Check out my website: www.primerica.com\cwright
The basics of money are there. Then set up a time to do a financial needs analysis to get the whole picture of where your finances are at. (never pay for a financial planner, this is right everybody should have without cost.) Then follow the plan and be secure in knowing that your future is taken care of, as is your present needs.

you need to buy a property as soon as possible that is an ivestment property so that you can let it asap then when the motgage is up in 2 years you can get another one then seven yearfs after that you can sell on of the houses and it will pay for the other one outright as the prices double roughly every seven years

1. Put money into your retirement accounts first.
2. Put money into an Emergency fund next.
3. Put money into savings for large purchases next
4. Pay yourself a reasonable alowance for personal things.
5. Pay bills.
