Your mind is like a parachute, It doesn't work if it's not open.

We can complain because rose bushes have thorns, or rejoice because thorns have roses. You decide.

The worst battles we have to fight are between what we know and what we feel.

Sometimes the most important lessons, are the ones we end up learning the hard way.

How to Save Business Article

Author's Note: In investing we had to learn how to properly write a business article, so this is the one I wrote. Fair warning it's about how to save for your future, and it's kind of boring.

Dear Mr. Heesch

In this How to Save article, by Sam Walton is about how saving is not optional, the problems of starting out, starting small, and the bottom line. Saving is not optional, according to Sam Walton, because “no one knows what social security is going to look like in ten years.” But, saving is also many companies will kick in money if you save for retirement. Which, can help you in the long run, because then your retirement plan could end up being almost double what it would have been without them. One of peoples biggest problems with saving though is that they think they don’t have enough money as it is, let alone any left over to save, whether it is for retirement or just because. Plus, sometimes you may not have as much to put away one month as you have before, but that’s okay. As long as you are putting something into your account each month and expecting for the worst that is all that matters. Starting small isn’t a bad thing, in fact it sets up the habit of saving every month. It doesn’t matter how much you put in because, saving is saving. But, the bottom line according to Sam Walton, is that saving for either a retirement plan, or even college, is to just start saving.

The key details the author is telling you about in this story, is that all you have to do is just start saving. You can’t be sure you are going to have a great retirement if you don’t have any money to have a great retirement with. One of the other key details in this article, is that most people feel like they have to start big, like thousands of dollars, but that is totally not true. There is no need to start with thousands of dollars, as long as you save something every month that’s all that matters, it creates the habit of saving. If you don’t save anything at all, you can’t be sure you are going to be able to do what you want to do.

Sam Walton’s purpose for writing this article, was to inform people on how to save, and why saving is a good thing to start doing. His intended audience were people probably in there early to late 20’s or early 30’s. Who have either just started a job that they are going to have for a while, or are being offered some kind of retirement plan that they are not sure about.
