It’s not just healthcare that’s worrying small business owners
You may have read my recent post about health care costs and small business owners. But it seems that health care isn’t only only issue on the minds of small business owners.
According to a recent poll by Wells Fargo and Gallup, retirement looms large on their minds. About 43 percent of small business owners are concerned they will not have enough money to retire.
With all the to-dos we have running a business, it’s no surprise we don’t plan for our end-game.
It wasn’t until about a year ago, I really started thinking about how I wanted retirement to look for me - and began actively saving for it.
What about you?

This is true. It’s very difficult because if you struggle to pay bills and then pay yourself, the last thing you think of is trying to put aside MORE money for later. I think you tend to think (like I do) that you’ll fix it later…

Healthcare and retirement are both big concerns for small business and individuals that work an 9 to 5 job also. Remember too, whatever money you receive from retirement in your “golden years” will go towards your medical expenses. It’s a vicious cycle I hate to see and my being only 30 years of age, I can’t even imagine the tough road ahead for me.
