Steps to Retire a Millionaire Having a million-dollar portfolio is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious effort. While success is never a sure thing, the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective. 1. ____ Vacations, car, kids and all of life's other expenses take a big chunk out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your expenses. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings. 2. ____ If you don't save, you'll never reach your goal. As obvious as this might seems, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan, enrolling in the plan is a great way to put your savings on autopilot. Simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your immediate tax liability. If your employer offers to match your contributions up to a certain percentage, be sure to contribute enough to get the full match. It's like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash may be a challenge, particularly when you're young, but don't let that stop you from pursuing future riches. 3. ____ Studies have shown that the majority of the returns generated by an investment are dictated by the asset-allocation decision. If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed-income investments aren't likely to get the job done, and inflation can take a big chunk out of your savings. Investing in equities entails more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it's a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow. Asset-allocation strategies can help you learn how to make picking the right mix of securities the core of your investing strategy. 4. ____ Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can't avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to mitigate the damage they can do. 5. ____ Your income should rise as time passes. You'll get raises, you'll change jobs, and maybe you'll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can. |

I fell in love with England because it was quaint(古雅)-all those little houses, looking terribly
old-fashioned but nice, like dolls' houses. I loved the countryside and the pubs, and I loved London.
I’ve slightly changed my mind after seventeen years because I think it's an ugly town now.
Things have changed. For everybody, England meant gentlemen, fair play, and good manners.
The fair play is going, unfortunately, and so are the gentlemanly attitudes and good manners-people
shut doors heavily to your face and politeness is disappearing.
I regret that there are so few comfortable meeting places. You're forced to live indoors. In Paris
I go out much more, to restaurants and nightclubs. To meet friends here it usually has to be in a pub,
and it can be difficult to go there alone as a woman. The cafes are not terribly nice.
As a woman, I feel unsafe here. I spend a bomb(大量的钱)on taxis because I will not take
public transport after 10 p. m. I used to use _it ,but now I’m afraid.
The idea of family seems to be more or less non-existent in England. My family is well united and
that's typically French. In Middlesex I had a neighbor who is 82 now. His family only lived two miles
away, but I took him to France for Christmas once because he was always alone.

Family Matters Oliver Darrow, actor, talks about his daughter, Carmen. 1 It might have been nice to have more. I would have liked a son,but we just had Carmen. I see her as my best friend. I think she always comes to me first if she has a problem. We have the same sense of humour and share many interests,except that she's crazy about animals,obsessed with them-she has always had dogs,cats,and horses in her life. 2 That's when they need their parents most. But as soon as Carmen went to school,she seemed to grow up and grow apart from her family, and any father finds it difficult with a teenage daughter. She was very moody and had an odd group of friends. There was an endless stream of strange young men coming to our house. I remember I once got annoyed with her in front of her friends and she didn't talk to me for days. 3 We sent her to a good school, but she wasn't happy there. She left because she wanted to become an actress.so with my connections I got her into drama school. but she didn't like that either. She worked for a while,doing small roles in films, but she must have found it boring because she gave it up,though she never really said why. She got married a few years ago; her husband's a vet. They must be happy because they work together. and she lores animals. 4 When she was younger I used to take her to the opera-that's nay passion-but she can't have liked it very much because she hasn't come with me for years. I don't think she goes to the cinema or watches TV much. She might watch my films. but I don't know. It's not the kind of thing she talks to me about. I'm very pleased to have Carmen. She's a good daughter, but I don't think she likes my new wife very much because she doesn't visit us very often. I'm looking forward to being a grandfather one day. I hope she'll have a son. |
