Steps to Retire a Millionaire
Having a million-dollar portfolio is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious effort. While success is never a sure thing, the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective.
61. ____
Vacations, car, kids and all of life"s other expenses take a big chunk out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your expenses. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings.
62. ____
If you don"t save, you"ll never reach your goal. As obvious as this might seems, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan, enrolling in the plan is a great way to put your savings on autopilot. Simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your immediate tax liability.
If your employer offers to match your contributions up to a certain percentage, be sure to contribute enough to get the full match. It"s like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash may be a challenge, particularly when you"re young, but don"t let that stop you from pursuing future riches.
63. ____
Studies have shown that the majority of the returns generated by an investment are dictated by the asset-allocation decision. If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed-income investments aren"t likely to get the job done, and inflation can take a big chunk out of your savings.
Investing in equities entails more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it"s a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow. Asset-allocation strategies can help you learn how to make picking the right mix of securities the core of your investing strategy.
64. ___
Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can"t avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to mitigate the damage they can do.
65. ____
Your income should rise as time passes. You"ll get raises, you"ll change jobs, and maybe you"ll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can.

I like music very much, pop songs particularly. Every evening then I am doing homework and at weekends when I at home, I always play some of my favorite songs on my tape recorder. The familiar patterns of notes attracts me into the colourfully world of music. Now and then I stopped to follow the songs. Sometimes, my mother comes in, asking me to fix my attention to my homework. She does not like the pop music. Like most grown-ups, she enjoys folk songs, because the peaceful music reminds her of their beautiful life when she was young. It is a truth which people of different age understand music differently and enjoy different kinds of music.

When you are hungry, what will you respond? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that? 71 But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?” or “Why can’t I think ?”
72 Why reading but not watching TV ? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from children. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.
When you read a book , of course you run your eyes through the lines and your mind tries to explain something to you. 73 Now this seed is unknowingly used by you to develop new ideas. If it is used many times, the same seed can give you great help to relate a lot of things, which you would have never thought of in your wildest dreams !
This is nothing but creativity. 74 Within no time you can start talking with your friends in English or any other language and never run out of the right words.
So, friends, do give food to your thoughts by reading, reading and more reading. 75 Go and get a book!
A.The interesting part of the book is stored in your mind as a seed. |
B.Why not do some reading while you are hungry. |
C.Just like your stomach, your mind is also hungry. |
D.Now what are you waiting for. |
F. Reading can help you make more friends, too .
G. Also this makes a significant contribution to your vocabulary.
A. The Great Wall was begun more than two thousand years ago. It was built to keep out invaders. It extends about six thousand seven hundred kilometers across northern China. Today, the Chinese government is working to repairparts of the wall and protect as much of it as possible. The Great Wall of China is one of the largest building projects ever attempted. It is also the only object built by people that can be seen from space.
B. The Coliseum in Rome, Italy was built almost two thousand years ago. The ancient Roman sports center could hold fifty thousand people who gathered there to watch public events. Experts say it is one of the finest examples of Roman design and engineering.
C. The city of Machu Picchu in Peru includes some of the best stone works ever built. The ancient Inca people built Machu Picchu high in the Andes Mountains, northwest of the city of Cuzco. Machu Picchu is about thirteen square kilometers. Historians say it might have been one of the last places of safety for the Incas who were fleeing invaders from Spain.
D. India is famous for its temples and buildings. The most famous is the Taj Mahal, considered one of the most beautiful buildings ever built. The fifth Mughal emperor, Shah Jahan, ordered it built in Agra in sixteen thirty-one. He built it as a burial place in memory of his wife. The Taj Mahal has tiny colorful stones inlaid in white marble. The structure seems to change color during different times of the day and night.
E. Abu Simbel was built more than three thousand years ago. It is about 280 kilometers south of Aswan on the western bank of the Nile River. It took an army of workmen and artists more than thirty years to cut the huge temple into the face of a rock mountain. In front of the main temple are four huge statues of Ramses the Second. Each statue is about twenty meters high.
F. Stonehenge also belongs on a list of ancient wonders. It is a circle of huge stones in southeastern England. Experts believe work began on Stonehenge about five thousand years ago. We know very little about Stonehenge. We do not even know how these huge stones were moved to the area. Much has been written about Stonehenge, but experts say they still are not sure what it was used for.

52 Their anger might be so strong that they lose control of their temper. They may act in ways unacceptable hurtful. People may say that someone has trouble controlling their temper. 53
Some kids might get so angry that they scream at their parents,break something, or even worse,hit their brothers or sisters. 54 However,it’s not OK for a kid to do any of those things. Kids don’t want to act in this way,but sometimes angry feelings can be hard to manage. So what to do?
Well,the good news is that kids don’t just have to keep making the same mistakes over and over again. 55 Imagine your temper as a puppy inside you that needs some training.
