PJ has five jobs, so his pay is almost never the same two weeks running.
Working in a creative field, pay can be scattered and unpredictable. So how does he invest consistently?
Jess learns how PJ, an actor juggling four other jobs, built a percentage-based system that invests a slice of every paycheque no matter when it lands. Plus the lithium stock punt that led him to ETFs and how he uses investing to fuel the pursuit of a dream career.
This is 'How I Got Started' a series on Get Started Investing. Every Thursday Jess sits down with a community member to hear the highs and lows of their journey to investing. These are real stories that we hope will give you confidence that investing is for anyone.
