More Reasons To Start Business

If you needed more reasons to get yourself over the edge and start you own business here is it. Michael Brush, a New York-based financial writer, wrote an article on MSN Money revealing that while most pension fund of several major companies are under funded, their CEOs payouts are soaring! Read it here.

When I say major companies, I mean big league companies including Ford, General Motors, IBM, Pfizer, Continental Airlines, Exxon Mobil and others. How would you like to see your pension income dwindling while the CEO who steered the company made millions? By the way, even if the CEO made mistakes along the way that affected your company’s financial results, they still end up richer by the millions.

I hope that you will make the decision to never rely on others i.e. the government or your employer, for your financial security. Earn your money when you work for them. Get educated financially and be responsible for you own financial well being.

If you are not responsible, then who else.

Very true. One must make it for one’s self, or at least within the family. However, the culture of today’s world is one of spend now, save not-at-all, and complain about your job and the government.

Yup, it is always easier to complain & to blame others than to take responsibility and do something about it. I think this pretty much sums up society generally.

That’s why, when someone actually put their name and time on the line for themselves and others, they get noticed.
