But no—a budget, when used properly is liberating.The great thing about investing, especially investing in the stock market, is the time value of money. The sooner you start investing the better.Then you continue to invest consistently no matter what's going on—whether the stock market is up, whether the stock market is down, you continue to invest. And that is what is going to pay off over time instead of trying to find the right time to invest.We have to make sure that we have the money first before we start spending it.An emergency fund is a cushion that you have in case things happen, and things always happen. Honestly, life always happens. There's always gonna be an expense that you didn't plan for. They'll come and throw off your budget.Make sure that your investments are aligned not only with your philosophy but also to your comfort level as an investor. Connect with Anne-Lyse:Website InstagramInstagram (Personal)
