Welcome to the 7th Installment of my:
Achieve TRUE Financial Freedom Series
Welcome to my Financial Freedom series. By now, you have read, What Financial Freedom is NOT, and
Today’s lesson will be much shorter because most of what you need to read around this topic I cover much more exhaustively on my blog, Deploying Your Money.
Let me be clear from the beginning, lest today’s title scares you:
I am not suggesting that you quit your job, or even look into it. I am just suggesting, if you want Financial Freedom badly enough, that you read through a couple of my blog posts and ask yourself whether your current occupation is in line with the purpose you have for your life and whether or not you can reasonably attain Financial Freedom with the path that you are on.
There is no monolithic formula for this one, hence I will not try to pontificate on any level what would be best for you. I will share a couple of links below where I analyze several concepts and how they contribute towards your fulfillment as a person, as well as your journey towards Financial Freedom.
Reading Material
The first read I recommend is: Are You in a Job or Career Right Now?
This article is mostly about your vocation and how it relates to your goals in your life. Both of these (job and career) have their merits, depending on your goals in life. I don’t prefer
The second read I recommend is: Types of Income Properly Defined: Passive Income Redefined
In this article, I look at the different ways in which you can make money and how they relate to your time and your journey towards achieving Financial Freedom. If you are hoping to live a fulfilled life and maximize the time that you have available to enjoy your life, this is a must read for you. If you are serious about achieving Financial Freedom, you should not neglect to read this post, especially since this is a topic that is spoken about a lot these days, yet properly understood by only a few.
My Final Thoughts
I am still on my own personal journey towards Financial Freedom. I know what I want in life and have invested a lot of time trying to achieve it. I have spent years studying how not to go about pursuing Financial Freedom. I have spent even more time learning how to achieve Financial Freedom, and after years of study, as well as trial and error, I have come to learn what needs to be done to attain Financial Freedom. These lessons, I share with you, for free, here on my blog
I do not consider my years of practical learning to have been a waste though. I have learned so much and have a lot to share and teach. Choosing to become a fulltime blogger was my biggest step towards achieving Financial Freedom.
I document my reasons in, Why I Became a Blogger. I should let you know, blogging, will not, in and of itself, buy me or you Financial Freedom, but blogging, by far can get you there quicker, while allowing you to live a full life on your journey towards Financial Freedom. This can happen if you manage your money as described in our previous lesson, The Importance of Credit on Your Path to Financial Freedom.
Everything Isn’t for Everybody
While I don’t believe that anything is for everybody, I certainly believe that a great many people can start a blog. The possibilities are so vast that a blog can quite literally become anything you want it to be. I document my personal reasons in, Why I Became a Blogger. Perhaps these reasons may resonate with you, perhaps not. If you have enjoyed the sentiments of this guide so far, my guess is that you will want the same for your life and will be able to relate to the other post I recommended as well.
All of the Best
This marks the end of your FREE Real Financial Freedom Guide. Be sure to check out all the articles I recommended and find out Why I Became a Blogger and see if you can start your own blog as well.
All the best on your journey

About Me
Mechanical Engineer,
turned Financial Advisor,
turned Personal Finance Blogger.
I learned early on in my career that it doesn’t matter how much money you make if you don’t know how to spend it and make it work for you.
Reading about personal finance, business and entrepreneurship became my passion. I knew that if I wanted to be successful, I would need to learn how to sell.
I quit my engineering to become a Financial Advisor, earning on commission only, to learn about money.
Here, I share what I have learned with you.
