All is well.
You are financially sound and earning in the six figures bracket.
Your plans for an early retirement are on the right track.
Doing the math, you figured when the time eventually comes, you would have accumulated enough to meet the needs of your children's college fund, buy another house and go on that round the world cruise with your spouse.
You have been very shrewd in making all the right choices in managing your money and investing it in all the right places.
Yielding fantastic returns At the rate you are going now.
You are going to retire rich.
What a perfect combination.
You will have money and time to spend it.
But, to achieve your goals, you will have to put in long 13 hour days for the next 10 years; you may need to sacrifice some quality time with your family so that you can get to where you want to go quicker.
Pause for a second.
Consider this.
Is it worth it? You may not have to worry about the state of your finances but will you be able to enjoy the luxury of getting to spend it when retirement age comes by, which is 55 in most countries.
Or will your retirement funds outlive you? All is fine and good when you start planning early to build the nest egg but lest you forget, you need to be in good shape.
What's the point of working so hard to save for that plan when you run the risk of not being able to reach your destination? Health concerns are just as important as the money concerns.
Don't neglect your health.
Or at least have an assurance that it will not jeopardize all that hard work in putting aside that tidy little amount you have planned for your retirement.
Do you realize that all it takes is a stress related ailment that will pull the rug from right under your feet.
A nervous breakdown, a stroke, a coronary.
Alternatively, you may not be as healthy as you think you are.
Just some serious medical issue with your health and your well laid out plans will just abruptly stop before it has a chance to fill out in entirety.
Think about insurance.
More importantly, policies that will comprehensively cover all aspects of your life, especially health or life insurance.
That way all is covered no matter what, the interests of your family and loved ones will have the sense of security.
