Until recently, forex trading inspired fear and mistrust for many people not familiar with the financial industry. The “day-trading Australia” crowd are not very vocal about the benefits they enjoy, so trading is still quite overlooked (as either a full or part-time activity) for the vast majority. But all of that is changing. Not so long ago, trading opportunities that came with currency-pairs and stocks were only available to big businesses and fat cats in suits working in glass tower offices.

Thanks to advances in personal computing and internet connections, the global market is readily available to anyone with a credit card or eWallet. And, with the creation of mobile trading apps, trading has become more than just a chance to make money from home.

These traders check the markets and place orders daily, and they enjoy this unlimited access anywhere, anytime. And the best part about getting started these days is that you can practice risk-free on a demo account. After a while, once your confidence level rises, you can trade at increasingly higher levels, all the while keeping within a budget that matches your financial situation and future goals. Too good to be true?

It’s up to us to find a little gold for our golden years, but how much do you need to retire without worries? Not so long ago, the magic number was $1 million. Reaching millionaire status by forty was once considered a ‘set for life’ situation for most people. Nowadays, that number is more like $5 million.
