Investing small can lead to large financial gains.

So, do you think you need to swim in cash to invest and be on a path to financial security?

You’ve probably glared at ads about investing in your future and thought,

“Nice, but where should this ‘extra money’ come from?”

Let me respectfully shatter your doubts.

You could start investing small and hit it out of the park! Those small investments could be your ticket to lasting financial freedom.

Intrigued? Well then, let’s begin.

Three Conventional Pathways to Financial Security

Pathway One: The ‘Big Win’ Approach to Wealth Building

The “Big Win” path to financial security is a daydream with us fantasising about that perfect investment. Who wouldn’t want to ride the coattails of the next Amazon, snatch up a penthouse in an up-and-coming neighbourhood, or get in on the ground floor of the next big tech disruptor?

The allure is almost irresistible.

But hold on a second. As tantalising as it is to imagine turning a quick profit with these high-stakes games, there’s a flip side.
