Common Investment Mistake 2008-02-06 10:06:00 A common investment mistake for many people is they underestimate how long they will live.
Today people are living longer on average compared with years gone by. Even if you do not agree with the fact that the average mortality rate is increasing, more people are reaching 80yrs old than ever before. You might be one of them. In which case, you need to think of having an investment strategy that takes into account your longer expectation of life on this earth and the lifestyle you want to live.
Not only do you need to consider how long you might live, but also you need to allow for the unexpected. You could be involved in a road accident or some other freak event that caused you to suffer loss of some physical function like a kidney or lung or an eye and your ability to earn money.
