This past week I sat through an investment presentation.  While sitting there I thought about all that I was hearing about what I needed to do to protect my income and protect what I owned.  How I needed full protection and lifetime protection.  I was instructed on rates of return, tax advantages, minimal risk, and liquidity control.  For a few minutes I thought I was someone who had money.  As the presentation continued I was a bit amused by it all.  After all I only wanted to try to prepare for someday when I could no longer work for the Lord and would need some level of retirement income but I listened on.
