It is a normal thing for me to do. I am that kind of person who goes directly to the point, even if I just met you seconds ago. Many people are surprised to how direct I am (in real life), in a good way.It's like coming up to a stranger at a coffee shop and asking them "how much money do you have in the bank and how much are you making p.a. ?"
Thanks for sharing. My definition of financial freedom isn't about retiring, but about money not being a problem to do whatever you want to do in life.I'll share some thoughts:
- my path wis not as relevant because as Heraclitus used to say that you can't cross the same river twice...
- I am not sure if I have achieved "financial freedom" as each of us will have a different definition of what that means. I cannot imagine "retiring" as it might just kill me of boredom. And because I run a business, I never have enough money, but by any normal human definition, I am financially wealthy.
- Value created to the world: all in real estate. Have been doing it a while.
- Business is a roller coaster ride. Some people come off one ride, puke their guts out and say "never again"; stress is too much. Others love it and can't wait to jump on another ride. That's what it feels like for me year after year, month after month. I go from low to high, from high to low. And I love it, wouldn't want to have any other way.
Do you have a post about your real estate and your coaster ride? I am interested to see how you made it.
