I've met plenty of rich investors but I've never met a rich 'saver'.

If you're one of those people who think they should put their extra dollars away in their bank account so you can start saving for retirement you're in the wrong state of mind. I'll keep this short and sweet so here's an example...

High interest banks these days return about 5% per year on what you keep in an account there.

Reason #1 - You Care What Other People Think
That may sound like something the average snobbish millionaire would say but it's not what you think. What I mean is that you are too caught up in trying to impress others that you fall into the trap of constantly buying material possessions in order to keep up.

Reason #2 - You're Expecting To Get Lucky
If you have ever honestly thought you would win your way to wealth by playing the lottery or going to the casino then you're in this category. Aside from wasting your money, these worthless "plans" are a good way to ruin yourself psychologically.


Reason #3 - You Have Bad Habits
Drinking? Smoking? Overeating? Think about how much money could be saved every year if you didn't do the things that cost you extra money each week. I won't even get into the long term physical and mental problems that will cost you in the end too.
