“If only I had started earlier…” — This is the most common regret of people in their 30s and 40s when it comes to money.

But you — in your 20s — have the biggest advantage on your side: TIME.

At ProShield Invest, we believe the earlier you start, the easier it is to achieve financial freedom, retire early, or live a life without money stress. Here’s your complete guide to building wealth from your 20s — even if you're just starting your career.

🧠 Why Your 20s Matter More Than You Think

Most people believe wealth building starts when you "have more money."
But that’s not true. It starts with how you use your money now.

If you start investing ₹5,000/month at age 23, by 45 you could have over ₹1 crore (thanks to compounding).
If you delay that by just 10 years, you’d have to invest ₹15,000/month to reach the same amount.

📌 Moral: Start small, start early. Let time do the heavy lifting.

✅ Step-by-Step: How to Build Wealth in Your 20s

1️⃣ Get Serious About Budgeting

You can’t build wealth if you don’t know where your money goes.
Use apps like Walnut, ET Money, or even Excel to track your spending.

✅ Try the 50-30-20 rule:

• 50% for needs (rent, food)

• 30% for wants (shopping, Netflix)

• 20% for investing & saving

2️⃣ Start an Emergency Fund

Before investing, protect yourself from unexpected expenses.
Keep 3–6 months’ worth of expenses in a liquid fund or high-interest savings account.

✅ Why? So you never have to break investments or take loans when life throws surprises.

3️⃣ Invest Through SIPs (Even if It’s Just ₹500/Month)

Start with Mutual Fund SIPs — low risk, great for beginners, and highly flexible.

At ProShield Invest, we help you:

• Choose top-performing funds

• Match them to your goals

• Automate everything

📌 Don’t try to time the market. Just start.

4️⃣ Learn the Basics of Equity & Compounding

Don’t fear the stock market — understand it.
Your 20s are for learning, not chasing returns. Focus on:

• What is a mutual fund?

• How does SIP work?

• What’s the power of compounding?

✅ Knowledge now = profits later.

5️⃣ Avoid “Lifestyle Inflation”

Earning more doesn’t mean spending more.

Most people fall into the trap of:

• Buying gadgets they don’t need

• Upgrading cars & phones too often

• Taking loans for vacations

📌 Discipline in your 20s = Freedom in your 40s.

6️⃣ Get a Term Insurance & Health Cover

Even if you're young and healthy, get covered.

✅ Term life insurance is cheap in your 20s
✅ Health insurance prevents financial drain during medical emergencies

📌 ProShield helps you pick affordable, no-nonsense insurance plans.

7️⃣ Create a Side Income

Use your free time to build skills, freelance, or start something small.

Whether it’s YouTube, trading, consulting, or a side hustle — more income = more to invest.
