No one can predict the future. But we all worry about it. And most of us are especially worried about our money. A recent survey from Capital One and The Decision Lab found that 77% of Americans feel anxious about their financial situation. And 68% reported that they're worried about not having enough money to retire. Planning for your financial future takes more than buying a lottery ticket and hoping you'll get lucky. It takes strategy. That's why we asked readers this week: Do you have a solid investing strategy? More than 60% of respondents said they don't. Many of them told us they're not sure where to begin. Like reader Arthur F. who wrote, "I don't even know how to start. Finding a broker is confusing." And reader Rachael L. who commented, "No. I need help! ... I'm badly in need of ways to make money quickly with not much money to begin with. I'm desperate." Other respondents told us they're worried about planning for the future. Like reader David N. who wrote in, "Now a full-time grandpa to a 10-year-old. What is the best way to secure college funds for this little guy?" Click here to view all the responses to this week's poll. Fortunately, Liberty Through Wealth readers have a leg up on the rest of America. Our expert strategists share their advice on finding the right broker, choosing investment strategies and understanding everything that's happening in the market every week. And soon, Chief Investment Strategist Alexander Green will be answering many of your questions LIVE on Facebook. If you have a question for Alex, be sure to post it here. And stay tuned for his upcoming live town hall-style meeting! Invest well, Allison Note: Comments may have been edited for spelling, grammar and/or clarity. |
