If you're not financially independent by the time you're 40, those $10,000 vacations, exotic sports cars and $200 dinners need to wait.
My dear you need to know that the world's best habits are those that make you money.
I repeat the world's best habits are those that make you money.
That being said, financial independence should be a priority before indulging in expensive luxuries.
Sadly most people don't ever view financial independence as a realistic goal, and that's WHY they take the $10k vacations, get the BMW, and splurge for the moment instead of building for the future. After 15 years it's a self-fulfilling prophecy.
Better to be patient and wait until you can actually afford all that without regretting it later.
A lot of people rush it and end up in a situation that they have to sell the expensive goods they bought.
Achieving financial independence is a major milestone and requires discipline and sacrifice.
Yes, while it's important to enjoy life, delaying indulgences until after achieving financial independence can help you reach your goals faster and with more financial security.
