Will Rogers says that you can double your money by putting it in your pocket, by I think it is actually an opportunity to TRIPLE your wealth.
Why is that? Here’s how I count the three ways: First, a dollar saved is a dollar you can spend tomorrow; second, it is a dollar that will grow and give you more dollars in the future; and third, by not spending on things you don’t really need, you keep your lifestyle cost one dollar less in the future. That’s it – three dollars for every one saved.
Happy Friday, everyone!

I managed to do that in an interesting way this week. By putting extra into a super fund ( the Oz version of 401k) . By doing it before tax meant I never saw it. It’s taxed at a low amount which mean hardly any difference to my after tax salary and it’s earning money for me to cover my after 60 lifestyle

It’s great when them money gets saved before you ever see it. Especially in an account that has an employer match (as US 401ks have). Does a superfund also have a match?

By law 9% of what you earn is placed into a fund by your employer. If you want a full understanding of how this works go to insider accountant he covers it.
