My Brother, My Teacher

My brother and I were just chilling the other night, listening to music on our satellite radio when we got into a deep discussion about saving for our futures. We were not discussing the immediate future, but for one day when we retire. My brother is very passionate about this and I am sure that he is Michael Dinich’s biggest fan.

I really never understood why saving for retirement pertained to me, as I was young and just out of high school. Then my brother showed me a daily article that said we should be saving for retirement from the moment we start working at a paying job. We would then never even miss the money because it would just be another deduction that was always there.

It made sense to me, even though my biggest worry money wise was whether my paycheck would be big enough for all of the clothes that I wanted that week. My brother taught me that your money matters, even if you don’t have financial responsibilities. I am glad that he cares enough to show me what is important and I am glad to know that when I do retire, I will be just fine, because of the wise words of Michael Dinich.
