Investing works best when it happens before the money reaches your checking account. This guide shows you how to put investing first: the right order of operations, capturing an employer match, automating payday, and choosing simple funds so you have fewer decisions to get wrong.

Inside: raise and bonus rules set in advance, talking about investing with a partner, what to do when money gets tight, a case study, a sample raise rule, Q&A and a glossary. General education, not personal investment advice.
