The tools are free. This is the artifact.

The First Steps Pack

Everything the free sequencer computes, rendered as paper you keep: your filled plan, the click-by-click walkthroughs, the 30-day plan, the full tables, the card deck, the workbook.

What is inside

The Filled Plan Pack

Your sequencer result rendered as a designed, printable plan document: your order, your numbers, your dates, a step tracker, and a fully worked filled plan from a real-shaped household, so you can see exactly how a finished plan reads.

The First-Account Walkthrough Pack

Click-by-click opening and first-investment mechanics for the three big interface families — Fidelity, Schwab, Vanguard — written at the level of screens and categories: where the cash sits, what every field on the order screen means, how the automatic investment switch works. Broker-neutral. No fund is ever named.

The First-30-Days Plan

Thirty days, thirty dated moves — from running your order to the day your first automatic contribution lands and your cushion transfer repeats without you. One page per week, checkboxes throughout.

The Full Catch-Up Tables

The complete grid the free age pages sample from: every age from 25 to 65, the monthly amounts for $250k, $500k, and $1M by 67 at both labeled assumptions, and your exact IRA and workplace-plan room at each age under the 2026 rules.

The Decoder Card Deck

All 50 decoder cards in print form — the plain-words definition on the front, the 'your first $100' line beneath. The vocabulary of your first year, on paper, at the kitchen-table reading level.

The Order Workbook

The three worksheets the order runs on — match capture, the debt-band decision, cushion sizing — each with blanks for your numbers and a fully worked household beside them: a 27-year-old with a 24.99% card and a match, a 47-year-old starting from zero, and the opened-Roth-IRA-with-cash case, worked to the last click.

What the Pack is not

It is not advice, and it never names a fund, a stock, or a mix for you — the same education line as the free site, kept on purpose. It is not a course to watch; it is a kit to use at the kitchen table and at the trade screen. If what you want is someone to pick investments for you, that person is a licensed adviser, and the Pack’s own pages will help you interview one.

Why $39

The order-of-operations course sold by the framework’s own firm costs $49; the best-known index-investing course costs $79; the classic beginner book is $15 and computes nothing with your numbers. The Pack is the tool version: below every course on the shelf, above every book, one time.
