Therefore with successful investing, you are able to accumulate wealth.

Before you begin investment planning, you need to think about how you feel about risk and talk about this with your adviser. Risk is inescapable. High risk investments promise the greatest potential return – especially in the short term - but also the greatest potential loss. Less risky investments suggest lower returns but have a higher likelihood of long-term success.

Other factors to consider are liquidity, diversification and taxation:

  • Liquidity is the ability to cash in or sell an investment quickly to gain access to the funds without significant penalty
  • Diversification involves having the right mix of investment types to reduce your risk
  • Taxation is also important, as a good investment plan will minimise your tax liabilities while earning the best return

Take advantage of market opportunities

You can take better advantage of market opportunities by engaging a financial adviser. By putting yourself in the hands of an expert, you can spend more time building wealth and less time worrying about the complex details of investments, superannuation and other financial matters.

Good financial advisors will also take a genuine interest in your goals and aspirations. They can be an excellent sounding board to help you work out what you really want in life, both now and in the future.
