Whenever we ask for money from our parents, the most common response we hear is “money doesn’t grow on trees”. We don’t understand why are parents warn us and forbid to give extra cash until and unless we earn our own money. Teenagers are very young and energetic filled with zeal and enthusiasm, they want to discover exciting places by going on world tours, shop the latest fashion clothes from womens leather jackets and buy the latest movies and gaming accessories. But the biggest problem we encounter is the imbalance between our infinite wants and our finite resources. Let us go through the benefits of investing money earlier, in our carefree teenage life:
- Saving for higher education:
Deserving students suffer a lot while applying for higher education. They stand on merit with high grades but still they become unable to attain admission in their desired field and colleges due to high admission fees. So it is better to save money and practically think of ways to invest in growing businesses. If we have a sound amount in our hand we will never compromise to seek our passion. We can even think about going abroad and continue our further medical and engineering education or we can even freely plan to join fashion and art schools to follow our creativity and skills. Hence we become independent to choose our desired carrier path without worrying about financial support from our parents.
Launching own startup ideas:
Usually, there is a great risk when we think about launching our own startup company and fabricate our ideas and creativity to form a stable business empire.So investing earlier gives us more exposure to opportunities and setbacks. After investing in many small businesses we become fearless and learn business tactics to satisfy our client’s demands and emerge as an unbeatable force in the social market. The earlier you begin the more experience you gain, it can lead us through our ultimate goal and reinforce our entrepreneur skills.
- Investing for vacations and latest automobiles:
Education is our basic need, even if our parents don’t have enough money they will try their best to support us financially by lending loans and asking relatives. But the problem occurs when we want money for vacations and other luxuries that lie beyond the scope of necessities. They also require a handsome amount as they are not cheap like buying mobile phones and other electronic gadgets. Getting refused by parents, the only option left is to invest money prior the whole year wisely. When we get any job or part-time gig, we spend the entire earning on shopping and partying, but when our family and friends plan for a particular vacation we are left empty-handed. So getting an early investment and money deposited in our accounts will always benefit us for covering long term and costly expenses.
- Settling and buying independent homes:
A normal middle-class man finds it very difficult to afford his own house. Unfortunately, he spends a major chunk of his earning in giving rents and listening to bitter demands of landlords.
So planning earlier by investing wisely to have a respected own small home is a much better option. We can start investing in monthly installments or buy a small plot on down payment and start its construction slowly during our teenage. Hence by the time we reach 30 or 40, we can have possession of own cute independent home.
Saving for retirement:
When we are young we are always rushing, we do great efforts to chase our dreams and follow our passions. But by the time we become mature we try to settle and live a safe life avoiding all the risks. So making an early retirement plan and working seriously on the ways to have a stable future is very necessary. We cannot have this vibrant energy and enthusiasm in all the stages of our life, during our youth we should indulge in any business that does not require much efforts and dedication. For example, we can invest in some shares of the stock market or buy rich currency so that we get a good amount in return and make sure there is sufficient interest so that it serves as an earning source for our secured future.
After knowing the benefits of investing in teenage life, we realize the importance of an old proverb, the early bird catches the worm. So in our teenage life, we can invest and experience all the risks to have a better financially stable future.
