What is Financial Freedom

gher than your expenses and you are not dependent on your 9 to 5 job for this.
Assets producing an income for life will give you Financial Freedom as long the income is higher than expenses. True Financial Freedom allows you to do whatever you are happy to do whenever you want. There is no age limit for Financial Freedom. You can be 25 or 50 years old. It’s never too late to start. Ultimately what Financial Freedom provides is good quality of life.
Financial Freedom is not about replacing your current income it is about creating enough passive income to cover your expenses. Let’s look at an example – An individual may be earning $100,000 a year there expenses are $65,000 per year. Financial Freedom is about creating passive income to cover the $65,000 a year in expenses. Once you achieve Financial Freedom you are free to do what ever you want in life. This could be travelling the world, doing volunteer work, changing careers, starting a business, relocating or even retiring early.
