The Pay Yourself First model is non-negotiable for sustainable entrepreneurship, yet most founders put themselves last. Financial strategist Monica Duggal breaks down her BITES method (Budget, Investing, Taxes, Exit Strategy, Systems) to help founders turn financial chaos into clarity. She explains why you need a financial system that prioritizes the founder from day one, rather than following the risky VC model of waiting for a big exit. We also cover why a two-year personal runway is crucial before you start, and how to turn every dollar of revenue into business growth. This is an essential guide for any entrepreneur who wants to build a legacy, not just a business. Check out the company: https://monicaduggal.com
