1. Paying Yourself

First The first and most fundamental money skill is paying yourself first.

This means automatically transferring a portion of your income into savings before you spend it on anything else.

A good rule of thumb is to aim for 10-15% of your paycheck.

Over time, this habit will help you build a healthy emergency fund and start investing in your future.

2. Investing in Yourself

The best investment you can make is in yourself.

Things like reading books, taking courses, exercising daily, and listening to podcasts are all fantastic ways to level up your skills and mindset.

Not only will this pay dividends down the line, but it's also deeply fulfilling work.

3. Budgeting 

Budgeting Creating (and sticking to) a budget is crucial for solopreneurs.

Track your spending and categorize it into "Needs," "Wants," and "Wishes."

This will help you ensure you're prioritizing the right things and saving/investing the rest.

4. Increasing Your Income 

There are so many creative ways to boost your income as a solopreneur.

From selling products or services, to working overtime, negotiating raises, starting a side hustle, or learning a new high-income skill - the opportunities are endless.

5. Jumping at Opportunities

As the saying goes, "opportunities multiply as they are seized."

Stay vigilant for chances to take on a new client, launch a new offering, or negotiate better terms.

Don't let these moments pass you by!

6. Choosing the Right Partner

Marrying the right person is one of the most important wealth-building decisions you can make.

Look for someone who is financially responsible, aligned with your goals, and has a winning money mindset.

7. Growing Your Network

Your network is your net worth.

Intentionally build relationships with lawyers, entrepreneurs, wealth advisors, and other key players.

These connections can open doors to invaluable advice, resources, and opportunities.

There you have it - the 7 money skills that every solopreneur needs to know.
