Mr. Paul Asante, a client service officer of Databank Asset Management Service Limited, has said it was prudent for the youth to begin investment before they started work.

He said many adults would have been self-employed if they had started investment in their youthful days.

Mr. Asante said this at a seminar organized by Databank for members of the Havilah Investment Club at Takoradi at the weekend.

He said if people were unable to adopt the investment culture, they could not adequately prepare for their retirement.

“Investments are a long-term venture and all must make an effort to adopt the practice to safeguard the future and that of the family.”

He said improperly planned adulthood could be miserable, unbearable and stressful and could lead to early deaths.

Mr. John Mensah, President of Havilah Club, said the club aimed at assisting the youth to cultivate the investment habit and prepare them for the future.
