Time and Resource Allocation Planning Based on Income

How to strategically plan your time and resources with an eye on the future?

Retirement may feel distant, but preparing for it starts now. This session will help you overstand how to calculate the time you have left, determine the financial resources you'll need, and make informed decisions to ensure you're ready for the years ahead. Let's explore how to align your current actions with your long-term goals, so you can live your life with peace of mind and financial freedom.

First, let’s talk about estimating your time and financial needs. Think about the number of years you expect to live and how many of those years you’ll be earning an income. If, for example, you plan to retire at fifty and expect to live until one hundred, you will need to have enough resources to cover fifty non-income-earning years. This reality applies to everyone, and it’s essential to be prepared.

To start, take your best estimate of how many years you think you have left. Multiply that number by 525,600, the total number of minutes in a year. This calculation will give you a concrete figure to work with. For example, if you are thirty-five now and expect to live until one hundred, you have sixty-five years left. That equates to approximately 34,461,000 minutes remaining. While this is an estimate, it brings the concept of time into clearer focus, allowing you to add a tangible “weight” or “value” to each minute of your life.

Next, determine how much money you will need to sustain your desired lifestyle over those years. If your goal is to retire early, you’ll need to plan well enough to ensure you can maintain your standard of living for all those years without additional income. Begin to think of time as a resource you control—much like money—and make strategic decisions now that will pay off in the long term.
