Statistics predict that of those people in the workforce at present, only 5% will be independently wealthy at retirement. Think about the statement: only 5% of people aged 58 will be able to support themselves financially without a government pension or other assistance. How depressing! Age creeps up on you, especially as you approach 40 or 50 and, in panic, you suddenly realise that you are not going to be in that 5%!
What are the reasons behind such a low percentage being able to retire comfortably? Why is financial independence so hard to achieve? The answer is simple - education has failed the vast majority of people. They have never learned:
1. How to make enough money
2. How to keep it
3. How to use it wisely
