Stocks or Real Estate? Which Comes First?

A common question in the Git Gelt Community:

"Should I invest in stocks and bonds or go straight into real estate?"

For beginners, building a portfolio with stocks and bonds is often the smarter move. Why? Because investing small monthly savings into real estate usually leads to poor deals.

Instead, grow your capital first, and when you have a lump sum, rebalance—move a portion into real estate while maintaining diversification.

It's not stocks OR real estate—it’s about building a well-balanced portfolio that makes sense for your long-term financial success.

What’s your approach? Do you prioritize stocks, real estate, or both?
