Common Roadblocks (and How to Dodge Them)

Let’s keep it a buck—everybody hits walls on their money journey. But here’s the secret: winners ain’t the ones who never stumble, they’re the ones who learn how to pivot. Here’s how to handle the usual suspects:

"I’ll start next month" syndrome – Nah, future-you is just as busy. Start tiny today—even $5 in savings counts.

Analysis paralysis – You don’t need the perfect app/stock/budget. Pick anything and adjust later. Done > perfect.

Social pressure – Them friends blowing cash on bottle service? Let ‘em. Quietly stack your coins—they’ll be asking you for loans later.

Shiny object syndrome – New "investment opportunities" popping up daily? Stick to index funds ‘til you really know your stuff. FOMO ruins portfolios.

Setbacks – Ate pizza instead of meal-prepping? Charged an emergency? Reset immediately, not "Monday." Progress ain’t a straight line.
