With an increase in income, if our 1st preference is to:
⢠Buy good quality businesses
⢠Increase monthly SIP amount
⢠Continue driving the same vehicle
⢠Buy other fruitful financial or physical assets
We are on our way to become financially independent.

How to save money?
â Keep using an old car. It doesn't make us broke
⥠Delete shopping & food apps. They lure us to buy more than what we need
⢠Don't bother if your friend is using an iPhone. Be happy with your Android

To build a passive source of income, we can work on a side-hustle by:
⢠Spending 6-8 hrs on Sat & Sun
⢠Cutting down sleep hours by 1-2
⢠Devoting 1-2 hrs after a day job
Thus, utilize 24-40 hours a week in building something that may become an active source of income.

When I interact with people on Personal Finance, all of them list down their financial goals as:
⢠Yearly Vacations
⢠Retirement after 60
⢠Luxury Vehicle & House
⢠Child's Marriage & Education
None of them talk about:
⢠Zero Debt
⢠Financial Independence

Invest systematically
Avoid timing
Choose companies with quality earnings, growth & management.
Not junk.
Chase long-term wealth
Avoid short-term fluctuations
Have a fear of permanent loss of capital.
Not volatility.
Stay invested during the drawdowns
Avoid redemption.

The Power of Repetition
1-hr of exercise doesn't reduce our body-fat in a day. If repeated everyday, makes us fitter
1-year of SIP doesn't build wealth. If repeated for decades, helps us build a fortune.
Over a period of time, not just money, small efforts compound too.

Charlie Munger after divorce lost everything at 30
Ray Kroc started Mc. Donald's when he was 52
John Pemberton invented Coca-Cola at 55
Colonel Sanders started KFC when he turned 65
It's never too late to start.
Any time is a good time to begin.
Never give up
