ADVICE

Pay Yourself First With Automated Buckets

Automate savings and investing first by using a 75/15/10 or more aggressive 50/30/20 split.
Create three bank accounts (spend, invest, save) and auto-deposit so you spend only what's left.

ADVICE

Choose Cash Flow Or Growth First

Define whether you want cash flow or growth before choosing investments.
Prioritize one goal so your allocation and decisions consistently build toward that outcome.

ANECDOTE

Jaspreet started buying discounted real estate after the 2008 crash and collected monthly rent cash flow.
He later mixed stocks without a clear goal and wished he'd focused on cash flow earlier.

“Wealthy people have an investing playbook: a system that works whether markets boom, crash, or move sideways.”

Jaspreet breaks down the 5-step playbook he wishes he had on Day 1: how to fund your investments automatically, choose between cash flow vs. growth, pick a strategy (passive, outsourced, or active), design a real portfolio across asset classes, and set a smart selling + tax plan. Less guessing, more compounding.

What You’ll Learn

The money-flow system: 75/15/10 (or 50/30/20 if you’re going aggressive) + 3 separate bank accounts
Cash Flow vs. Growth: how to pick, and why starting with one matters
Strategy tiers: Passive (ABB: Always Be Buying), Outsourced (AUM & fees), Active (research-first)
Portfolio design beyond stocks: business, real estate, stocks, speculative (startups/crypto), gold
Selling & taxes: when to trim, 1.5% AUM math, and why real estate’s 1031 exchange can defer taxes
