I recently made a small change that could have a big impact later in life; something I like to call a power move.

It always seems like an ordeal to find an hour in the middle of my day to drive to town and get a haircut. I've tried to get my wife to cut my hair but even that seems to be a struggle with kids, schedules, and the hustle and bustle of life.
Until I recently found the answer in this little gadget:
After using this for a couple of months to cut my own hair, I believe this is a great investment. I am saving myself time and money, it only takes a couple of minutes, and since it's cordless, I can even cut my hair in the yard for no cleanup. Also, the rounded design of the cutting head makes it quick and easy to perform a clean cut.
Here is where my plan gets interesting: I can take the money I save and invest in my future. Einstein once said, "the power of compound interest is the most powerful force in the universe." If I take the $20 I would have spent every month and invest it in a conservative ETF fund earning 8% a year over the next 35 years I will have earned $47,824.

Of course, if I would have started in 2011 and put the money toward Bitcoin I would be a multi-millionaire.

This principle can be applied to all areas of life. Challenge yourself and a friend to skip that morning cup of coffee.
