Asking people with different age about their financial goal it made me think deep about

some stuff that I never thought about. It was so fun that I got benefit of people thought about

their financial goals specially the long-term goals. I met 5 people with different age, and they

were 18, 21, 28, 34, and 47 years old. I would like to say that the two people who are 18 and 21

years old have close thought about the financial goal. They both hope that their expenses less

than their income, and this goal was common to the most of the people. Also, 18 years old girl

was hoping her financial Aid cover her tuition without any problems until she graduate.

However, the 21 years old guy hope that he graduate and get a good job, so he can pay back his

financial Aid.

The people who are 28 and 34 years old have close goals too. The most important goal

for them is their house and cars. The 28 years old guy hope that he finish financing the car by the

end of the year, and he is planning to finance a house after. However, the 34 years old person

short-term goal is the summer vacation with his children. And he is trying to save money to

travel without effecting financing his house.

For my neighbor who is 47 years old, his thinking is mostly about retirement. He run his

own business, and he is an engineer in Daimler company. He is telling me that having business

with our job is important to face the expenses in the life. For his short-term goal is mostly about

his profit every year from his own business.

In my perspective, I found out that life is levels depend on our ages. I think that adult

people who thinking about their school and starting their lives, and people in 25 – 40 are thinking

about the life need such as cars and houses. However, people who are close to 50s are thinking

about their retirement. It important that we know what our goal would be in different ages.
