Steps to Retire a Millionaire
Having a million-dollar portfolio is a retirement dream for many people. Making that dream come true requires some serious effort. While success is never a sure thing, the steps outlined below will go a long way toward helping you achieve your objective.
61.       
Vacations, car, kids and all of life"s other expenses take a big chunk out of your paycheck. To maximize your savings, you need to minimize your expenses. Buying a home you can afford and living a lifestyle that is below your means and not funded by credit cards are all necessities if you want to boost your savings.
62.       
If you don"t save, you"ll never reach your goal. As obvious as this might seems, far too many people never even start to save. If your employer offers a 401(k) plan, enrolling in the plan is a great way to put your savings on autopilot. Simply sign up for the plan and contributions will be automatically taken out of your paycheck, increasing your savings and decreasing your immediate tax liability.
If your employer offers to match your contributions up to a certain percentage, be sure to contribute enough to get the full match. It"s like getting a guaranteed return on your investment. Finding the cash to stash may be a challenge, particularly when you"re young, but don"t let that stop you from pursuing future riches.
63.       
Studies have shown that the majority of the returns generated by an investment are dictated by the asset-allocation decision. If you are looking to grow your wealth over time, fixed-income investments aren"t likely to get the job done, and inflation can take a big chunk out of your savings.
Investing in equities entails more risk, but is also statistically likely to lead to greater returns. For many of us, it"s a risk we have to take if want to see our wealth grow. Asset-allocation strategies can help you learn how to make picking the right mix of securities the core of your investing strategy.
64.       
Part of long-term planning involves accepting the idea that setbacks will occur. If you are not prepared, these setbacks can put a stop to your savings efforts. While you can"t avoid all of the bumps in the road, you can prepare in advance to mitigate the damage they can do.
65.       
Your income should rise as time passes. You"ll get raises, you"ll change jobs, and maybe you"ll get married and become a two-income family. Every time more cash comes in to your pocket, you should increase the amount that you save. The key to reaching your goal as quickly as possible is to save as much as you can.

When you are hungry, what will you respond? Have your favorite meal and stay quiet after that?  71  But it never lets you know, because you keep it busy thinking about your friends favorite stars. So it silently serves your needs and never lets itself grow. When mind loses its freedom to grow, creativity sets a full stop. This might be the reason why we all sometimes think “What happens next?” or “Why can’t I think ?”
     72   Why reading but not watching TV ? It is because reading has been the most educative tool used by us right from children. Since it develops other aspects of our life, we have to take help from reading.

阅读下列应用文及相关信息,并按照要求匹配信息。首先,请阅读以下世界古代奇观的简介:
  A.  The Great Wall was begun more than two thousand years ago.  It was built to keep out invaders.  It extends about six thousand seven hundred kilometers across northern China.  Today,  the Chinese government is working to repairparts of the wall and protect as much of it as possible.  The Great Wall of China is one of the largest building projects ever attempted.  It is also the only object built by people that can be seen from space.
B.  The Coliseum in Rome,  Italy was built almost two thousand years ago.  The ancient Roman sports center could hold fifty thousand people who gathered there to watch public events.  Experts say it is one of the finest examples of Roman design and engineering.
C.  The city of Machu Picchu in Peru includes some of the best stone works ever built.  The ancient Inca people built Machu Picchu high in the Andes Mountains,  northwest of the city of Cuzco.  Machu Picchu is about thirteen square kilometers.  Historians say it might have been one of the last places of safety for the Incas who were fleeing invaders from Spain.
D.  India is famous for its temples and buildings.  The most famous is the Taj Mahal,  considered one of the most beautiful buildings ever built.  The fifth Mughal emperor,  Shah Jahan,  ordered it built in Agra in sixteen thirty-one.  He built it as a burial place in memory of his wife.  The Taj Mahal has tiny colorful stones inlaid in white marble.  The structure seems to change color during different times of the day and night.
E.  Abu Simbel was built more than three thousand years ago.  It is about 280 kilometers south of Aswan on the western bank of the Nile River.  It took an army of workmen and artists more than thirty years to cut the huge temple into the face of a rock mountain.  In front of the main temple are four huge statues of Ramses the Second.  Each statue is about twenty meters high.
F.  Stonehenge also belongs on a list of ancient wonders. It is a circle of huge stones in southeastern England.  Experts believe work began on Stonehenge about five thousand years ago.  We know very little about Stonehenge. We do not even know how these huge stones were moved to the area.  Much has been written about Stonehenge,  but experts say they still are not sure what it was used for.
以下是旅行者的信息,请匹配他们计划参观的世界奇观。
