Don't complicate things. Keep it simple and follow the order:

  1. Risk (buy insurance)
  2. Survival (build emergency corpus)
  3. Invest (make the most of compounding)
  4. Diversify (across asset classes)
  5. Persist (through ups and downs)

Vehicles listed by you are just that. Could change depending on incentives and life stage.
