About this episode

“Got $5,000? Here’s how to make it work for you.”

In this episode, Jaspreet breaks down what to do if you have $5,000 sitting in the bank and how to turn it into way more:

  • Why paying off debt and building an emergency fund come first

  • Two powerful paths: actively growing your money (start a business) vs. passively growing it (invest)

  • The easiest types of businesses you can start today: content, service, or product-based

  • How to invest your $5K even if you don’t want to run a business

  • Why consistency (not just the amount) is the real secret to building wealth

  • What Jaspreet would do differently if he were starting over with $5K

Whether you want to hustle your $5K into $50K or build slow, steady wealth, this step-by-step guide shows you exactly where to start.
