Your biggest asset probably isn’t your portfolio. It’s your income. Everything else gets funded by it. Your paycheck is what: pays the bills funds investments covers taxes keeps retirement accounts moving No income, none of that happens. But there’s another reason it matters. Income gives you time. If markets fall ➝ you can still keep investing. If something expensive shows up ➝ you don’t have to sell assets. If an opportunity appears ➝ you can act instead of scrambling. For most people in their working years the income you’ll earn over the next 20 years is greater than the portfolio you've built so far. The investments matter. But the thing behind them is still your ability to earn. Protect the ability to earn.
