If your income goes up and down, REITs might be what you need. The whole problem with investing is being consistent, but with REITs you can start small, add more when months are good, and pause when money's tight with no penalty. It took my clients some time to find the right pacing, but once they did, things got a lot easier. Setting up flexible automatic deposits keeps you in the market without draining your cash.

As a SaaS entrepreneur with unpredictable income, saving used to be stressful. I set up automatic contributions to my TFSA, but I use a percentage of each paycheck instead of a fixed amount. This way I don't have to think about it every month. If your income fluctuates, start small and adjust later. That approach has been the most manageable for me.
