Financial freedom and independence is realized through financial intelligence i.e. Your ability to create assets to generate and control CASH FLOW.
You can only become financially independent when your income from your assets exceeds your monthly expenses. What most people don’t realize is that the salary mentality leads you to financial slavery because you work to pay more taxes but the rich and successful people pay less tax.
