By automating savings through strategies like 401(k) contributions, Roth IRAs, or direct deposits into savings accounts, you can build long-term wealth effortlessly. This approach fosters discipline and prioritizes future financial security over impulsive spending. Read along with the original article(s) here: https://ryanhlaw.com/how-to-pay-yourself-first/ & https://ryanhlaw.com/automate-your-finances/ Quotes to ponder: "Poor people spend their money and save what’s left, while rich people save their money then spend what’s left." "A part of all I earn is mine to keep." "Paying yourself first is all about deploying the gap: maybe some goes to beefing up your emergency fund, and another portion gets thrown at debt."
