What's Really Hindering Your Financial Freedom | Mikey Manghum | TEDxUTulsa

Thanks to technology, we have more access than ever before to financial literacy information, and we can set up automated savings or investment accounts at a few clicks of a button. Yet anxiety, worry, and concern over financial direction persists; it doesn’t quite add up. Could it be that we’re going about the pivotal first steps of true wealth creation all wrong?

My outlook on money changed when I realized someone making $300, 000 can retire broke & someone making $80, 000 can retire a multi-millionaire. Living within your means and living a frugal lifestyle is the first step to financial independence. I just hit the one million mark last year, cheers to everyone striving to get there someday.

So the objective is not financial freedom but purpose in life. To have that purpose you need to understand yourself and what should motivate you to achive that goal/purpose. In my case it's family, love and a "boring life" full of meaning beyond financial issues. Therefore, to achive the goal I need to focus on financial stability and providing for my own. I don't need passive income, I need a work that provides me with some freedom, objectives and independence to help those around me. Success is not pupose, happyness is not purpose. Purpose is the result of the journey to thrive to achive and be humble enough to know we can never meet all goals, that we are human and there's so much we can control. It's being good at everything and not the best at one thing. It's beliving we have always something to learn and that the best in life comes from the ones you don't control.

Great insights. Education is KEY. That can be difficult with so many salespeople dressing up and pretending to give financial advice as a veil to sell products.

Spot on. The market presents a lot of opportunities to create passive income, with the right skill and proper understanding. Whether you’re not sure about what to invest in, or you don’t have time to manage your assets, just make sure to consult an advisor. Good luck!

Let's talk about success:* Firstly the journey won't be easy, embrace persistence, patience and perseverance. Outline your goal and pull your efforts together to achieve that goal. I had a fair share of struggles before diving into crypto last year. And let me tell you, it completely changed my life! So don't lose hope, my friend.

“To obtain financial freedom, one must be either a business owner, an investor, or both, generating passive income, particularly on a monthly basis.” - Robert Kiyosaki

The S&P 500 moved 8.9% higher last Month, achieving one of its best monthly performances in history.. which is an indicator for profits to continue to improve. I just want my money to keep outgrowing the inflation rate. I'm still looking for companies to make additions to my $500K portfolio, to boost performance. Here for ideas.
