The Road to Wealth

I have good news and bad news. First the good news, if you make at least $25,000 a year in personal income, during your lifetime over $1,000.000 dollars will flow through your fingers. That’s a lot of money. You would essentially be a lifetime millionaire. Now the bad news, if you’re like most American’s, you will have spent it all by the end of your earning years. How is that possible? Frankly, we’re not taught about this necessary life skill. Most of what we know about money, we learned from the school of "hard knocks." Fear not, I have more good news! Building wealth is easier than you think! Christians naturally develop the two keys nececassy to build wealth: (1) discipline (2) Consistency. Being a good Christian requires discipline; being a sucessful Christian throughout your lifetime requires consistency. Likewise, developing a financial plan requires discipline; building wealth over time requires consistency. Ready to display money discipline, start right now developing a money plan, and consistently lay a side a little money each week as a seed. Let that seed grow into a mighty money tree, then you will have the financial strength to complete God's instruction for your life!
