How to set long-term financial goals

Listen on

Episode notes

There are many reasons why we should have long-term financial goals – but perhaps the biggest is to ensure that we have a security net during our golden years.

Working out what we want to achieve financially in our lives can be a struggle for some.
Sure, there are the usual goals that many of us may aspire to – saving for a home and our children’s education, for instance.

But what if your goals are different and you don’t want the responsibility of owning a home, or maybe you'd like to join the FIRE movement (Financial Independence, Retire Early) and stop working at 40 – or even younger?

Host Felicity Glover talks to Vijay Valecha, chief investment officer at Century Financial, about setting financial goals and how to get started.
