Ever faced the dilemma of wanting luxury but worrying about the financial implications? Jaspreet shares a transformative lesson from his journey: learning to spend money wisely. Growing up in a traditional Indian household emphasized saving over spending, Jaspreet initially found it challenging to justify expenses on non-essentials. However, as he became became more financial educated, he discovered the balance between saving, investing, and spending.

Jaspreet discusses the concept of affording luxury purchases without compromising financial stability. He introduces the idea of tax deductions for business-related expenses, emphasizing the importance of spending in ways that add value to one's business. For instance, leveraging business trips as opportunities for networking and collaboration, which, while enjoyable, also served a professional purpose.

For those unable to secure tax deductions, Jaspreet outlines a phased approach to financial growth, starting with building a foundation (saving and eliminating high-interest debt) before moving to systematic investing and saving. He suggests the "rule of five" as a gauge for affordability—only splurging on a luxury if one can easily purchase five of them, ensuring these expenditures don't derail financial progress.

Phase three is where passive income from investments can cover living expenses, allowing for more flexibility in luxury spending. However, he cautions against premature withdrawals from investments, advocating for continuous reinvestment until financial freedom is achieved.

Whether it's a designer watch or a dream vacation, his approach offers a pragmatic path to enjoying luxuries while building wealth and he emphasizes the importance of disciplined saving, strategic investing, and thoughtful spending as pillars of a stable financial life.
