Define your goals<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Your personal circumstances will determine your goals. Some common investing goals include saving for retirement, a child&#8217;s education, or future home. Use the SMART objectives (specific, measurable, achievable, realistic, and time-based) to define them.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>2.<\/strong> <strong>Categorize your goals<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">Group your goals based on how far into the future they might go. A vacation or a deposit on a car is likely to fall into the short-term category, whereas retirement may be considered long-term.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<h2 class=\"wp-block-heading\"><strong>3.<\/strong> <strong>Identify strategies that align with your goals<\/strong><\/h2>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">When deciding how to invest the money for your goal, consider your time horizon. The shorter your investment goal, the more liquid and lower risk the strategy should be. Long-term goals will allow you to take on additional risk because there is more time to make up for any losses that might occur.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p class=\"wp-block-paragraph\">How do you set your investment goals?
