Something that troubles me is how the majority of people in this country have very little control over their retirement. Most people are inadequately funded for their retirement based on their age, and their money is typically invested in Mutual Funds of some kind. I'm not denying that there aren't some benefits to these accounts. However, with a little financial education, you can have much more control over your retirement and be able to take control of your retirement.
The article that I've linked to below discusses the different kinds of traders in financial markets as well as trends and why we care about trends in financial markets as individual investors. You can read the article by clicking here.

Good luck everyone and enjoy the weekend!

So like most people, I'm working towards retirement. However, I've learned that no one has the same definition of retirement. For some, it's not working anymore. For others, it's making enough $$ to never have to work again. For me, it's a simple math formula, and it has nothing to do with waiting till 65. I believe retirement planning is easy, but it's been complicated by the financial services industry so they can make money. This blog will be my journal as I make my way to retirement.
