There is no difference between ordinary migrant workers and employees in important positions in the company. At the age of 40, everyone is the same, with great work pressure and life pressure. Everyone has his own troubles and worries.
So where should we go?
I think the main thing is to make money! You really don't have to think about anything else at the moment. Because it's no use thinking about it. If useful, you would have become a talent, or start your own business and have your own career!
I understand your concern, just like I just lost my job at the moment, I am in my thirties, and I have no source of income after losing my job. At the moment, my heart is extremely empty. Think about the future life, the future pressure. I know you are as worried as I am.
I think we are just worried about things, just worried, which is obviously not enough. What we need most is to do something. Of course, before you do it, you must clear your mind, that is, what are your goals.
At the age of 40, when you are old and young, and the economic pressure is greatest, your most direct goal can be money, which is the most direct and practical. You can plan for yourself how much money you try to earn every month and what kind of needs you have in mind within half a year. What kind of economic accumulation is needed for children's education? You should know what you are doing, and then do it at work every day.
At the age of 40, you should learn how to invest and manage money, so that your capital can be more preserved. If you don't have any investment experience, I suggest you invest as little as possible, and don't make risky investment plans like stocks. You can start by buying a fund. The least risky is the fixed investment of the fund. You can choose to buy the fund every month, so that your risks can be evenly distributed. No matter what you plan to buy or invest, you should have the consciousness and key to sum up your money, and please don't take out too much money.
At the age of 40, you are not as energetic as you were when you were young, so you need to pay more attention to your health, do more exercise, and set aside some time for yourself to exercise when you work hard. Then take out part of your salary to buy a suitable insurance for your family and yourself, and also buy a peace of mind for yourself and your family.
So, if you are 40 years old, before you panic about the future, make clear your goal of making money, and then consider how to allocate and plan your assets reasonably. I wish you easy money and a happy life!
