I was fortunate to have an art teacher in secondary school that helped me figure the world out before I was out of school. He put me in the path of some great clients that I've had for almost a decade now along with giving me the foundations I needed to know as a working artist. So my current plan is, I am investing 5% of my paycheck from my day job into my 401(K) and have 15% in high risk high yield investments and the other 85% is in low risk retirement savings investments. I have also been busting my butt to build my business and relationships with TBDC, so I could begin wealth building with that and paying myself a salary and sticking 75% into Retirement Savings and the other 25% into savings. I also am working on buying a foreclosed property in cash and renovating it for me to move into and live in while I continue to save and stockpile.
