How much of your personal life will you sacrifice for financial freedom?

[Sticky Bomb]

Although when most people share personal information online, they try as much as possible to keep out sensitive information while most people do not care.
I want to know, even with risk involved, would you go as far as sacrificing your privacy to gain financial freedom ?

I would not trade any personal information for financial freedom, the only information I can freely give out is a career one, maybe create a YouTube channel where I drop career successes and new innovation and give it up for contributions and criticism. Private life should always remain private, the internet never forgets and giving people insight towards your personal life would give you up for cyberbullying more than anything and I don't think I would appreciate that at all.

Cyberbullying doesn't stop with you as the victim, your children are indirect victims and would be bullied always by their peers and all these may be as a result of sharing too much private info over the net. I wouldn't want to be the reason my children are exposed to a traumatic life, so I would ensure private stuffs continue to remain private.

I believe we all have to be financially stable and achieve financial freedom, but I also don't think that our privacy and personal life should never be sacrificed, otherwise, we may succeed in our finances but we are a failure deep within because our privacy has been compromised.

Money is just a material thing, while privacy is priceless. We may be happy with what we have achieved in life particularly with financial growth and prosperity, but we can never be genuinely happy with what's happening with our personal lives.

So the answer is, I will never sacrifice my privacy and personal life just for the sake of money matters.

Privacy is indeed an expensive price for someone, if everyone has the same opportunity to work to achieve financial freedom or at least to survive then more will prioritize privacy as a form of life principle, but not a few conditions of someone who has to give up their privacy just to be able to get money, maybe you can say “just material”, unfortunately that's only for some people, and among us choose to sacrifice privacy if it is a condition in order to have a better life.
 
Sometimes they don't care what privacy is, all they care about is being able to eat well and live comfortably.

I have made many sacrifices in my personal life to achieve financial independence, including staying away from my family and giving up happy moments with each of my family members. I used to stay in a hostel for my studies since childhood and lived a very cheap life there so that I could adapt myself financially later.
Even though I have started earning some income online, I am still far from my family and my family, that is, I am trying to achieve financial well-being by giving up my family relationship. However, one thing is very important that if you give your time to money, then you must sacrifice some personal and joyful moments in life.

This depends on the type of family you have of course, it's not the same thing but at the end of the day if you are not dealing with something decent yourself then it's not going to be easy for you neither.

It's definitely a big issue but for the longest time we have handled this as a way of just moving forward.

Remember, if you have a family you WANT to cut ties with, then it's a good decision, but if you have a decent family and you love them, then not being with them just to get rich is a bad move and shouldn't be done.

My neighbor is a blogger and she completely shows her life to the internet. But what's the joke, it's that what she shows on the Internet is absolutely different from what it is in real life. She lives in a one-room apartment with three children and a dog, but she constantly posts photos of her walking around a huge apartment with a view that does not exist in our city. I think she rented an apartment in the capital and now pretends that this is her apartment in order to appear successful to her subscribers. Well, she uses a lot of filters on her face, which is why in reality she is a fat aunt of 40 years old, but in the photo she looks like she is 25. It's stupid, and I don't understand why she would mislead subscribers.

Well i think, it’s really inevitable nowadays to not give much info online especially if you’re using the internet to find sources of income.

Aside from influencers, just like you mentioned, people seeking job opportunities uploads their resume to different companies online. Resume includes a lot of details about you. It could be a lot risky but i guess, that’s just how it is now. You’d still have to submit info about you if you’re looking for a job. Even buying online means providing your details so they can deliver it to you. So what more for a stable source of income? It may be inevitable not to share anything, but we can still be smart with what we share and to whom we share our infos. Risk is always there, what we can do is just ti minimize it.

I think many of us here would not choose to sacrifice their privacy for making money online.
Being on this forum means we are involved with bitcoin and that means privacy is something that do concerns us.
So I don't think many of us here would chose to sacrifice it and I think nobody should do that.
We never know at what point someone might use that information against us.

Being on this forum doesn't guarantee you privacy in any way. Your wallet address can to linked to your true identity through your CEX transactions or other forms of data exposure.. Besides most people in the forum still have their life outside here. Users are only pseudonymous here in the forum and outside here they go about their everyday life.

Let's say a high reputable member is a TikToker or a Youtube influencer will you ever know they are the same user, it will be so impossible to connect both identities. It will be difficult to tell.  I have that strong believe there are lots of forum members who have a good life outside here. They are not limited to this space alone.

I would not be so quick to sacrifice anything. Especially if I am feeling pressured by someone or something to do do so. That just means that you are sitting on something that someone else wants. And when it comes to financial freedom, that is the one thing any government would love to have. And we keep acting so passive and oblivious to this fact, they will eventually enslave us all, in one way or another.

Stay vigilant.

Many people don't pay much attention to privacy when exploring the internet, even when they discover ways to make significant money. But there's always the opportunity to reset to a better method if they choose, it just depends on how important privacy is to them. The worst thing is if they have that insight but it doesn't change their mind.

It's not all online remote jobs that will require you to give up all their personal information before you get hired and for some of them that requires a hand full of information about you, those employers would not also willingly give up your details to scammers except they are scammers themselves. I have a friend who is working as a chart operator, it's a remote job and they are paying her well but the only information she gave them was her name and email address and her profession which was all on the resume she submitted. They didn't ask for ID card or permanent resistance address. So, it's actually different.

I mean it would probably just depend on how the earnings is going to happened there are some privacy that I wouldnt going to sacriface, I have a good example, anyone here remember the World project, In my country they have the program where you are going to received around 5000pesos when you allow this to scan your retina, when you let them scan your retina it is going to be recorded, I think the project was a collection of retina something like that, it is a blockchain project, and you are goin to received tokens if you do that, basically it is kinda like a KYC but doesn't need your ID instead it is your retina, then your going to received the token worth 5000pesos, but after a few months ofcourse the value was even lower since the token was dropping it's value.

Personally I would easily sacriface it, if we are talking about financial freedom, it just depend on how much or how big the money is, ofcourse if it is just 5$ or 10$ there are some referral bonus where you just give your information like a KYC and you are going to be rewarded for that, but if we are talking about a huge amount like you are a content creator your sharing everyone I think it wouldn't really matter since that is your source of income, personally if im earning a huge amount by it, I wouldn't going to care about the privacy.

[slapper]

You still have your privacy to sacrifice. Like it's in a jar somewhere and you just decided when you wanted to open it. But most of us opened that jar the moment we made an account in gmail, probably in 2009 or whatever, without reading anything. Technically this sacrifice has already taken place. We just didn't get paid for it is the funniest part. The influencer discovered that you might as well make money off of what you're already giving away. That's actually a reasonable response to an irrational system.

But there's the other thing, too. When you put your life online for money your relationship with your own life starts to change. You begin telling, rather than experiencing. And that change is quiet, it doesn't advertise itself.

I think that after many information leaks, our data is already online. There were leaks when large services like banks, food delivery, and the like were hacked. Therefore, if desired, you can find information about almost any person on the Internet if they have ever uploaded it about themselves on the Internet. And even if he didn't upload it, because as I wrote above, the services could do it for him. And that's why I think those families who post content about themselves don't take much risk. But still, when I look at bloggers, I don't really approve of such a public life, it seems to me that such people are losing something important. And it's not a fact that their efforts will pay off with money.

Online jobs that would require every information about the worker has to be looking for another thing and not the work they want the person to do for them, if the person is not going to be holding their finance the email and other details which of course should be in the resume is their for them to confirm the information about the person any other information they my be looking for may be to sell out the details of the person or to scam them later. There are so many people who and doing dirty things online to get paid the scammers who are always smart get informations online and from someone who is somewhere demanding for different information of people working with him or her.

I’m the kind of person who doesn’t like others knowing about my personal life. So even though there’s an opportunity to make money by sharing our daily livess as a content creator, vlogger, or influencer, I’d rather avoid it. for me, keeping my personal life out of the public eye is more important. financial freedom is everyone’s dream, but I prefer a safer path, even if it does take more time.
But I see that these days, even people who aren’t making any money at all still prefer to flaunt their personal lives on social media. And I don’t understand people who do that.

[Samlucky O]

The truth is that everyone can not be thesame, if some people can sacrifice there privacy just to get the Money, not everyone can do that. I try as much as possible to keep my privacy away from social media, but I see people doing it comfortably without a second thought. But However why I don't think much about them is because that is where they are making money from. Even if I will make money from social media, I can only do educative content that will be of help to the society and not the one that will involve me revealing my secret or privacy.

I never said being on this forum guarantees us privacy. I just said that being on this forum means privacy concerns us.
It basically means that we do acknowledge that privacy matters and we should consider using privacy measures in anything we do.
Obviously it doesn't guarantees anything. Besides that, everyone has their own preference and ways to browse the web and so it all depends on the individuals on how much they are willing to sacrifice their privacy.

It is still different when you have peace of mind and no one knows your real you. Those public figures have a different life as well but while they're on the spotlight, they know what they're doing and understands what they are up to. And so, if they're able to make a lot of money from publicizing their lives and becomes a public figure, that's their choice. Like them, we also have our personal choice and we don't want to be in the spotlight because once you're in there, you should be open to criticism and so we choose a different path than that.

Yes, this is indeed true and thats why we can really say that it would be that situational because each person does have that different status when it comes to fame,popularity and power and financial status. If they would be able to make more money despite of those publicity then they wont care since they are making a living with it and there's nothing we can do. Also when it comes to privacy then each one of us does have that different approach and partake into it but in overall its always been best to be that having no leaks or that private when it comes into the information on which of course just like been said that it would be that situational. Financial freedom is what we do all wants and it doesnt matter on what kind of approach you would be taking into as long you would be able to achieve your dreams in life then this what matter most. Just make it sure that you wont be putting up yourself into the path that you are already that dealing up with something not ethical or legal.

We all want that but, we will choose the quite rough yet legal and not the easy yet something illegal way. But going with desperation, other people can do whatever they can just for them to reach that. Although if you're a person who believes that hard work pays off, you understand how it will go. No harming and stepping of other people while you're aiming for your greatness and trying to reach your financial goal and freedom.
