Future Self Wealth Starts Today
Retirement.
Do you know about it? How to save for it? Know how to invest for it? Probably not. Most of our education in the USA does not consist of investing for your long term life and the years when you are not working. Considering how long we will likely live as each year we are breaking world records of the oldest person alive.

Work on Your Health
In 2018 alone the average American paid about $3,400 for insurance alone and $5,000 per person on average on health care last year. When you consider this increasing cost of the healthcare system each year and the cost for the average American your retirement years can lead up to $125,000 for 25 yeas of retirement give or take on the changes with Medicare and how increasing costs will be for having supplemental insurance or if without Medicare the cost of insurance alone!
Work today for tomorrow.
Working on your health today will lead to better life long health in the future, from preventing injury, health conditions and lowering the risk of having cancer. When the average cost of a fitness class and changing your daily routine to have 30-60 minutes of moderate activity (30-70% max heart rate) such as walking, climbing the Culver City stairs or biking at the bike path of Santa Monica and Venice Beach there is so many opportunities to get the benefits you need to create these habits for long term health changes. Not only do they change other parts of your life such as diet, outings and environmental choices but it will change your molecular biology if you stick to it long enough.
