Investing In Yourself Is the Best Investment

​Investing In Yourself Is the Best Investment
By Pierre Mouchette | Bits-n-Pieces

​When it comes to money, investing it wisely and consistently is critical to growing your wealth.  Sitting on money in a savings account only offers wasted years of financial freedom or early retirement. 

​People who do invest money will take various avenues.  Many will choose the stock market, and others will choose real estate.  Others may choose to invest in businesses.  What you invest in is a matter of your life goals, the money you save to invest, and understanding how to make your money work for you.
While there are differences, there is one asset we all have in common that everyone should invest in first: YOURSELF.  Investing in yourself will pay huge dividends throughout your lifetime, whether in monetary value or improving your overall happiness. 
 
What Does It Mean to Invest In Yourself?
Investing in yourself means putting time, money, and other resources into bettering your current and future life.  Instead of primarily focusing on material things, you look for opportunities and assets to raise your knowledge and make huge impacts. 
The goal is that you are continually improving and building a better life for yourself and your family.  By investing in yourself first, you can see an impact on your finances, career, hobbies, and overall happiness. 
 
Why is it essential to invest in yourself?
When investing in yourself, you acquire knowledge and other skills that significantly impact the return on investment (ROI) of anything you pursue.  It is essential because it helps you diversify your knowledge, improves decision-making, makes you more prepared financially, maximizes your career or business choices, and more.
