So What Is Financial Freedom And How To Create A Long-Lasting Financial Freedom Plan?
Although it has different meanings it all comes down to having enough income without worrying about tomorrow’s debts, paying off all your expenses, and still having some left to enjoy life. However, what does it really mean to you? For instance, to me, it means having the freedom to do what I want, whenever I want, and having lots of free uninterrupted time to chase my other goals.
Therefore, before moving forward some of the choices for financial freedom for you may mean:
- Retiring at 30
- Traveling 3 to 4 times a year
- Quitting a 9 to 5 job to pursue a passion
- Owning a home and doing away with rental bills
- Having an investment property to secure your future
The options are many; it is up to you to decide what it really means. Above all, for this plan to be successful, it will involve being positive from the very start. Additionally, surround yourself with like-minded people. Firstly, differentiate your goals from theirs, and set your own goals.
