Hello guys, I am Alisson, a Brazilian living abroad. Through my life, few times I thought about this goal, some times I started and stopped for different reasons, such as changing jobs, change my goals, changing the country I was living, and so on. To achieve this “financial independence” you need focus in a long term, I am speaking about years, I this journey you don’t need to save all the money you can, you can still enjoy your life, but you need to save a good percentage of your income. I would say 20% or 25% of it. I will show in future posts few rules and math to show how can you make it, when will you make it. Not only about to save, but also about to invest, how to invest based in previous experiences, not mine, I am just starting, but from successful people. I will show their path, what made them successful? What did they do? What can we learn from them?
Unfortunately I haven’t achieve it yet, I’d love to come here and share all I have done toit, but we can learn together, I believe I am in a good path, but I have to be humble, I have’t pass any crisis yet. Here I will show some ideas about how to pass by it, not learned by me, but form others who have achieved it.
Why am I looking for this independence?
- I have seen how people struggle, not only in Brazil but in other countries too, and probably I created some fear to this struggle in the future, I have seen that in my family. I’d like to have always money come in, even if I do not work, and explain all of this to my wife, she believe that I’d like to be home all day playing videogame and playing with our dog, but the reality is much different. I am sure I have to work much, much more than ever before. Always be tuned to investment and business, laws, banks, fees, networking, and so on.
- Another reason is that I don’t want to work for somebody forever, I want to work for my self, doing what I love and what I want, when I want.
There is a book I’d love to recommend you all to read and also this author, Napoleon Hill.
I will speak about both of them in the next post. Here you can find a link for both of the books I want to speak about at first:
Next post will be a summary of those books listed above.
