One
path to superficial financial freedom is a bigger salary. That can open the
door to borrowings because most loans are a multiple of income. Spend first,
pay later. A deeper level of financial freedom comes at it from a different
angle. Goals and spending. Pay attention to what you find fulfilling. Pay
attention to the sources of joy and meaning available. Our lives are path
dependent. Lots of our decisions are made for us by default. If we don’t choose
consciously, life chooses for us. Normally we cast our eyes on those earning
more. This means we miss all there is to learn from those earning, and
spending, less. Price is just a clearing device. How much is there? Who wants
it? Meaning a high price is a better indication of scarcity than value. If you
can improve the skill of finding value in things that are abundant, you are on
the path to financial freedom. If you can get a gap between your earning and
spending, you can start to build capital. A deeper path to financial freedom is
creating space to breathe. One step, inhale, another step, exhale, and repeat.
