In this segment, the speaker outlines the third pillar of a smart investment portfolio – the momentum strategy – whose main goal is to generate discrete profit chunks that can be used to aggressively deleverage the portfolio and pay down debt. He frames this within a broader decision‑making question: what is the highest and best use of the portfolio right now, balancing the need to overcome current sticking points with the opportunity to capitalize on market openings. The speaker then recaps the three essential strategies that should coexist in any portfolio at all times: buying gold for capital growth, a "paycheck" approach for steady cash flow, and the momentum strategy for profit‑driven deleveraging.
