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

[Nightwatchmare]

I won't say I will sacrifice all of my life just for financial freedom. But, looking at the world and family we came from where you need to struggle and work hard to make a living and where you can't see anyone you can call or run to when you are financially down,  I will try my possible best not to put my head in one source. In this very world today, I tell you that financial freedom can never be met, because the rich keep getting richer without not achieving a financial freedom. As one who fight to become independent, and who wants to achieve financial freedom and also who has a big responsibility at hand, I think I will sacrifice 95% of my life just to be close to financial freedom.

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.

Your way of thinking is very good and you work keeping in mind the welfare of society and people. Yes people from many parts of my state or the area I live in. There many people give up their privacy and become somewhat financially independent. I think this path is completely wrong because there are many other ways to lead life properly. I think you money is not everything in life. But I work hard for my family and try to earn money honestly. It is physically exhausting, but at the end of the day I am mentally stronger and enjoy it. Not much learning is done on social media these days (not all content creators), it really makes our society more vulnerable.

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 ?

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.

Definitely true, one of the risk of sacrificing privacy is cyber bullying which does not only affects you as a person but also affect your family. One might post something online they feel it okay to post and the public goes against it, which then contributes to the public bullying that individual. It will also affect their children or family member because people will always want to use it against them since they are connected to you.

Simple as it is but that's reality, for you to live a comfortable life you need money to cater your needs, though we do have different perspectives and view point about our intention and desire but everything depends from the money side of it, if you can have a good source of income and you are contented with what you are gaining, then you can proceed and choose which path you want to move forward and then cater the type of a lifestyle you want to live on.

You're right, what you said is that to live a comfortable life, we need money, and it can also enable us to have what we want, which adds to our comfort. Essentially, we have to work to earn money because it's one of the essential necessities for survival today. Many people experience difficulties in their lives, one of the reasons being financial problems. We must survive, and one way to survive is by having money. Money must be earned, so we must work to earn it. Having money will enable us to survive, so ultimately, everything comes down to money.

If you only live for the sake of financial freedom, I might say that even if you get it, you will not still feel the content and satisfaction you keep on longing. But if you live your life the simple way, without too much focused on money and the material things in life, you may not noticed but you are living your life with less hassle and stress, and that will make you genuinely happy and satisfied in your life.

The happiest people on Earth are not actually the wealthy people that are living in luxury, but those people who get to appreciate the simple things in life and celebrate in life even for small winnings and achievements.

Lead life in a simple way keep you away from a lot of stress. But nowadays, building status and accumulating money have become the main goals for many people. Many individuals got higher education not to become better human beings, but simply to earn a higher income.

Every year many young people from developing countries move abroad just to support their families or meet basic needs. In doing so, they sacrifice their personal lives. They live far away from their family and sometime missed important moments in life. It is truly unfortunate that they have to forget their personal happiness just to fulfill family responsibilities.Moreover, due to social media and society pressure its become very difficult to revive a simple way of living. As the world becomes more complex, especially due to war and uncertainties, it would be wise approach to cut down on unnecessary expenses.

Money comes as a result of hard work,.if you don't work there's no way you will make money except your are born in rich home. If you need a comfortable life you have to work hard to achieve it nothing comes easily in this era, money must be made and good life is our desire that's why we strive everyday to achieve our dreams.

To Make money you must have a paying skill not just outdated skills but skill that will bring food on your table, in life we can't skip any step especially when your from poor home you have to work your way to the top, with patience and work one can actually achieve a good life.

That cannot be denied, and we can even see now that people have sacrificed everything just to get money, so I think everyone's priority is to get money for the comfort of their life. However, we also cannot think about it excessively to the point that there are things that also need to be considered, such as family and health, which cannot be replaced with money.

In fact, even if I were born into a wealthy family I would feel ashamed to keep relying on my parents’ wealth to get by because fundamentally we must be able to live independently. Besides, our parents would be proud if we could live independently rather than just constantly relying on their wealth even if that’s what they want because that’s the wrong way to raise children.

Moreover, if we want a comfortable life we have to work for it and the way to do that is by working hard, because not everything can be obtained easily even if it seems reasonable to rely on the wealth of parents who are indeed wealthy.

For some reason, I've come to exactly the same conclusion. I know several wealthy people, but for some reason they're not very happy. They have a lot of money, but they don't get any satisfaction from all this luxury. What will make them happy? It's hard for me to answer that question. I think it's just their personalities. They could be considered pessimists, who see life only in negative terms.

Apparently, in the current age of social media development, the more visible a person is, the more opportunities they have. A lot of individuals earn money online sharing some of their lives. This will create a sense of trust, increase their network and in the end, they will get revenue. But this is liable to decrease privacy, mental pressure and risk of security. One of my friends does this, and he can sustain his privacy in a number of ways. He begins by withholding and not telling and keeping a sensitive one, and isolates his public life and private life. He decides what to publicly post and what not to post. According to him, none of this is an issue provided that he does not lose his control of his life.

Life here in the Philippines, most of us are working for our family. And whatever it takes for us to work until we get old just to sustain and help them we'll do our best for that. But as time goes by, I've realized that this kind of culture is also toxic. We have to live by ourselves and reach the financial freedom as early as we can, not telling early ages or when but as long as we can. And as for me, I'll try to do my best to do that and so it won't be a forcing help from me if one of my family members ask me some help because I can give it freely and easily if ever I get to that point that I am already financially free.

In some societies life is communal. People ensure that their relatives are okay, so they support them in any way they can. Young people naturally have the responsibility of taking care of their parents and other relatives.  

However, it is important not to carry responsibility that we don't have the ability to cover. I have some of my friend who is indebted because they had to cover the school fees of their siblings. We should learn to live our lives because too many responsibilities could lead to so many problems.

 This draw my attention as it's a reality and facts, Yes typical example of what I witness of shouldering responsibility above one strength, is very bad which I will not advice anyone to toe that part, a young Man hot a Job which salary is not enough to take care of the entire family but his caring and philanthropist lifestyle made him to engage in taking care of certain responsibility to the point he borrowed before salary come in the young man has work on the job nothing to account instead of living good life or have other investment he ends up owning debt, to crown it all the young man could not prepare or save money to marry as his due of age to take a wife , shouldering responsibility that your strength can't carry is a catalyst of human failure, such sacrifice is not Worth taking, don't impressed people in expense our own failure where those people you impressed will laugh at you at the end let there be a balance where taken such assistance.

What kind of freedom are you talking about by sacrificing privacy? Being secret is the greatest freedom. When you do not have privacy, you are not free in any way, even financially. Financial freedom by sacrificing privacy is not the main freedom, rather it subjugates life.

There are different classes among people, some want to earn money at any cost and some people prioritize privacy and real freedom. We see those people in the cryptospace, especially in Bitcoin. Even this forum can be an example of that. While maintaining privacy, you can create a foundation for earning money by using your talent, you will also get the opportunity to be completely anonymous in Bitcoin investment.

Freedom isn't only about money or when you can do anything you like. Real freedom is when you have full control over your life, your choices and most importantly your information. If you lose your seed phrase, even when money is inside that freedom isn't complete. But at the same time, I won't say people should hide everything or completely live in secret, too much secrecy can limit opportunities, especially in this our current society, where trust and connection are Important Privacy is very essential because it protect you from unnecessary attention and control. But freedom still requires choice to decide when to reveal yourself and when to be private.

You're right, as we've got communal lives. We always think of our families to the point that we're forgetting that we've got ourselves to support. And that story of your friend is also the same with the people that I know of. They prioritized their families, the immediate and not the family that they're starting to build. Until that they've gone weaker and they're no longer able to work. Those who they helped when they're still earning well have already forgotten their help and have their own lives. That's why you're right that we only help with the capacity with what we have and not to put them on our shoulders to share the burden they have to us. Because we also have our burden to take care of.
