Objectives of financial planning

Financial practice allows you to have a secured future by allowing you to plan for days ahead.
To decide on the investment purpose
Any saving or investment should start with a purpose. This can give investment a roadmap. For instance, say, you are 30 years old and want to plan for your retirement. You have 30 years to save. Your goal is to get a monthly pension from age 60 to age 80.
To determine how much you need
Once you prepare the roadmap, use an online retirement calculator to know how much you will need and how much you should invest. No matter what your goal is, there are financial calculators for every investment available online. See if it would be practical for you to set aside that amount after all your expenses regularly.
To structure the investment
You may choose to invest on a monthly, quarterly or annual basis. Don’t forget to consider your current assets. Investments can range from short-term (towards buying a SLR camera) to long-term (towards buying a house or retirement) to meet your diverse needs.
