Enjoy Your Retirement - Plan Ahead

Retirement can also be very daunting, if you have not planned it well. It can actually turn into your worst nightmare because you will have no work to do and no money to survive. There are couple of things which you should take care while planning for your retirement:

  1. Establish a good retirement fund: when you are working, your company gives you option of couple of retirement fund. Pick a retirement plan in which you can get maximum involvement from your employer as well. Try and push your slab to the maximum benefit from employer's side.
