[quote=Anonymous]There is nothing unique about a reliable path to financial security. Simply save more than you spend. The more you do that the greater and faster the results. Simple, but it requires self-control and delayed gratification, both made easier if you focus on the long-term outcome you are aiming for and not on short-term indulgence. Beyond merely saving money, invest it prudently and consistently, so that it grows faster than inflation erodes the value of your savings and investments. That means investing in unexciting and uncomplicated low cost, broadly diversified ETFs and mutual funds, not investing in real estate or individual equities. Anecdotes about big scores in rental property or in glamorous stocks aside, you'll almost always do better in the long run with a relatively simple and balanced ETF/mutual fund portfolio. [/quote]
