Wealth creation

Want to create a better lifestyle for yourself and your family?

To do this you need to create wealth, and to create wealth you need to invest.

Some people think saving and investing are the same, however, each requires a different approach and a different strategy.

Saving is simply putting aside some of your disposable income for a short term goal, such as a holiday or motor vehicle. Saving usually requires a conservative approach, taking little risk with your money.

A bank account or fixed term deposit are usually sufficient to reach your savings goal.

Investing means putting your savings to better use by making your money work harder to build security for your future. You need to adopt a longer investment timeframe with a measured degree of risk.

Examples of wealth creation strategies are:

  • buying and selling of shares
  • applying extra money to a mortgage
  • maximising the tax savings of superannuation
  • taking advantage of gearing.
Bridges is one of the few Australian financial planning companies to offer in-house stockbroking services.

  • make informed share trading decisions including investment selection, asset allocation, managed funds, and gearing strategies
