But, that's obvious though 😂 However you'd be surprised that some people are actually scared to be rich due to a number of reasons. But....they don't wanna be poor. No one really wants to be poor. One last note....rich doesn't have to be millions or even half of a million. You can be rich with even $80k yearly. And damn near poor with $2M...All dependent on the individual's lifestyle and habits.

That's not what he's talking about in this video. He's talking about when you reach the point that money is not going to solve your immediate problem and when your needs are fully met. At that point, increasing income will not change your outlook on life. He's suggesting that before you reach this point, work on your emotional freedom because at the end of the day, the emotional freedom is where the happiness lies.

I would like to share my story. Im sorry that its a little all over the place lol. I grew up in a poorer household and so having money and being able to buy whatever I want was always very important to me. I, also being raised in a poorer household, learned poor money management skills and tragically fell into the consumerism trap (but as opposed to my parents I have very minimal debt). Something I've realized recently after pursuing different lifestyles and aesthetics is that I don't want a life where I have a lot of money. I want a life where I don't need money. A life where instead of striving for the newest pieces and habits of whatever new aesthetic I think will make me happy (since the last didnt) I am going to focus on filling my life with quality, practicality, and time. In this I mean that instead of buying a new pretty item for my house for example, I will look for an older quality piece that is practical to my life. Something important for this is to look for patterns in my current life. I tend to wear similar things and not touch the others, I tend to use a certain cutting board or spoon and not touch the others. So when looking at these items I find a pattern: I don't reach for my super aesthetic marble looking spoon when I cook, instead I reach for my wooden one. The reason for this, I believe, is I like the quality and stiffness of the wood one more, it's more practical. I reach for my super thick knit cardigan more than my other ones (even though I think its unnattractive) because its much higher in quality and is more warm and comfortable and worthwhile to wear. The quality and practicality of an item is what makes it worthwhile and in our life we should be striving for things that are worthwhile. Worth our time, worth our money, worth our space. Now to go back to a life without the need for money, in finding items like this I will only need to buy them one time. This saves me a lot of money as I won't feel I need to go and buy new ones when the last one "didn't work", I won't be relying on money to make me happy or to attempt to make me happy as it will be a means to practicality rather than joy. With having the higher quality pieces that are for practical use I'll have more time and security to then pursue things such as crafting. In my opinion crafting/creating is a major thing for humans and so crafting our own bread, repairing a hole in our pants, creating a recipe, crafting a bowl for our kitchen, or painting a painting for a loved ones is one way to find fulfillment and requires little to no money. A life where I don't need money is a life where I have a lot of time.

I think happiness is a temporary thing, like any other emotion. I definitely want to get financial independancy by investing but I don't want to chase after something while thinking "I'm only going to be happy when I achieved that", no. I'm living NOW and I can give myself happiness NOW. I.e. by buying my favorite chocolate this month even though it's more expensive. Investing. Taking breaks and allowing myself to relax. Listening to my feelings and setting boundaries etc.

I worked really hard and got promoted up the ranks until I had a 6 figure salary. It was fun for a few years, but what is often not mentioned is, that level salary comes with an 80 hour workweek. When you calculate the pay per hour it was about the same as where I started. The workload wore me down and hurt my health. I was able to retire early, yes, but at what cost? All the pressure caused high blood pressure and that caused kidney and heart disease, so after 6 years of retirement I’m not even well enough to travel and do the things I planned.

I went through this, I left my job in 2016 and out of fear went for another one, spent one year there and they let me go but I have never gone back to full time work. I have started my own business which has done well and hasn’t done so great, I work a part time job now and I’m going to school. I say all that to say that yes I have spent a lot of time in these last few years on emotional freedom. It’s a lot of work to change the beliefs at your core and understanding that we can be free and fully accountable for our lives and happiness.

I made it to financial freedom 3 months ago. It took me about 12 years of grinding, but it’s totally worth it. I don’t care much about what money can buy, I still live below my means, what I care is that I’m no longer forced to do things that I don’t want to do. Some people love their job, but I never did. All the jobs that I had were soul sucking. My only way out was grinding, saving as much as I can and investing.

Been living free for 2 years now being a "deadbeat" and man I forgot what it's like to work for someone and having to wake up to a alarm lmao. Life is good. now I'm working to just to be the best father possible for my kids. Another thing is when you have so much free time that staying healthy and active takes no will power. you just get the urge to run or workout to not feel like shit sitting around all day. Otherwise having the will power to go the gym after work is near impossible for most people.

Great topic - how to find the balance between job, personal life, financial plans and milestone, happiness? The answer is unique for every person and many people are against Financial freedom just because they fear to miss to live the moment and to spend on latest phone /car/make up/restaurant etc etc -and this is not bad if are happy with. No problem for people that love their job and want to be there until are 67 years old. No problem for people without debt. Or with debt and don't care about. No problem for people that are waiting some inheritance. Or people that are not waiting it at all. In my case financial freedom will bring more time for what I love and fullfill me: volunteering, sport, time with friends, reading, travelling. None of these are my job so I keep a big saving rate and a small expense level and to not neglect my loves. I found my balance, and I think anyone can find it.

I have since learned about two others from another source and they are Romance and Recreation. I think a few of these have their own places for helping with emotions but Emotions could be its own category too.

@Vincent Chan I definitely agree that Financial and Emotional freedom are important together. Initially, I mainly focused on financial independence with little improvement. This year I been putting more focus on my emotional mindset. Surprisingly, it’s been making the journey to financial freedom more enjoyable and I been receiving more fun opportunities to grow financial without being stuck to a 9-5 schedule. Hope we both get to an emotional state we want to reach.

I agre with what you are saying. I believe that you don't want to chase money throughout your career. Chasing money does not guarantee happiness. My background is very similar to yours. I'm first generation of parents who immigrated from Hong Kong, graduated from college and working as an engineer. I'm much older, but I took to heart a comment from a high school teacher. Find a job that you enjoy doing, and you will never work again. I still enjoy working with technology. A lot of friends have all moved on to upper level management, but I didn't really want to do it because I enjoy getting my hands in the technology.

Think financial position/hapiness is a mindset and willingness to adapt. Too many people get stuck in a mindset of doing the same thing over and over again thinking it will lead to success. True hapiness comes from constant failures and be open to new situations/possibilities until you find some that works for a while.

The KZbin algorithm must have read my mind, just yesterday I thought about why financial freedom doesn’t really make that much sense, and now I get that video on my recommended, I gotta say, I totally agree with you on the emotional freedom part, actually I made a similar video to this one two months ago explaining why happiness is an illusion if you always chase happiness and don’t try to be happy right now. Imo more important than financial freedom is a fulfilled meaningful life and I think that is achieved by working for something you think brings value to the world, therefore, for me, financial freedom means working for myself because then I have full control over my life and I can work on something meaningful. Anyway, great video man, I really enjoyed watching it ✌🏼

Don't think I've ever heard someone explain the cliche's of life this philosophically. I really believe that comes with the experience you have had that provides a more accurate analysis. Thank you so much for these videos, subbed!

u r right. When i first started working after college in germany, I was happy to get a job paying me 30k a year. Now with almost 2 years later I am earning close to 40k and still not happy with it. It is an endless cycle. Once u reach a goal, u will set a new goal. It never really ends.

That’s the beauty of time we live long lives to make goals and set new ones .. if we all were content with “good enough “ society will not be what it is today we won’t have great companies Tesla , Amazon, Apple wouldn’t be here if their CEOs didn’t keep raising the bar for their company and employees.. so when you get to the 50k mark it’s not enough 100k is “good enough “ never settle for mediocre..

I love this.. I'm not about to worry and stress myself because I'm not wealthy.. to me health is wealth.. I'm not about to over work myself and work for a job that I don't love.. I am responsible for my own happiness no one else.. yes money makes life a lot easier but so does having a peace of mind.. I will not spend my life chasing and stressing over something that's man made and I can't take it with me.. most of the time all money is used for is to buy products. That's all I see on social media buy this buy that.. that's not why we are on this earth..

Marcus Aurelius' Meditations really help me in my journey to emotional freedom. It's mainly about discerning the essentials (finding joy in less) and taking charge of your reasoning--that glorious space before I react to the external world. ON POINT LIFE CONTENT AS ALWAYS! U DA MAN, Vincent!

There is a new study associated with the happiness study (title: Experienced well-being rises with income, even above $75,000 per year) published by PNAS this year. It suggested that happiness doesn’t plateau at 75000. It’s just a reference, it’s you that determine whether 75000 is enough for you at the end. 😝

"You are going to be exactly same person with exactly same issues that you had before. Just minus the job and minus the money problems." The second sentence contradicts the first, since you already state that a given person won't have money problems thus that person no longer will have same issues.

According to one inflation calculator (in2013dollars), 75k in 2010 (when the study came out) is worth about 95k today. That would sound about right living in big cities in the US
