📊 Chasing Monthly Returns? Here's What Really Counts 💡

It’s easy to get caught up in monthly market movements—🔺📉 one month it’s up, the next it’s down. But short-term fluctuations can be a distraction from your long-term goals.

What really matters? Decades of disciplined investing in global equities.

📈 Over the last 30 years, annualized returns have been:
✅ +10.4% for US Equities 🇺🇸
✅ +8.5% for Global Equities 🌍
✅ +7.6% for UK Equities 🇬🇧

The real benchmark isn’t last month’s market return—it’s whether your investments will fund the lifestyle you want, for as long as you need.

💡 Investing in the great companies of the world has delivered life-changing returns for those who stay the course.

So, let’s focus on what truly matters: a financial plan built for the long run. Growing Together! 🚀
