  time to build a strong nest egg for their
  retirement years. The earlier you start the
  stronger nest egg you create. It is your todays
  income that will support you in later years. Your
  desired retirement income is the percentage of
  your current income, so make a habit to save as
  soon as possible.

  because in the initial months most of the people
  give up on this habit because they find it too
  difficult to draw out money from their income.

  will give them a lifestyle they desire their
  retirement years. You have more power and energy
  to work hard as young, so apply this formula to
  your savings plan too. Save aggressively in the
  starting years and enjoy the benefits for the
  rest of your life.

  figure out the best possible way to meet your
  retirement needs.
