At the end of the day, i guess its most important to be happy with what you have and live within your means. <br /><br />Of cos, it doesn't hurt to increase our means of living and extend the boundary of the comfort zone. :)Roystonhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17883963186215315521noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345069859964317097.post-67923178153013587712009-06-09T08:22:04.523+08:002009-06-09T08:22:04.523+08:00Thanks Rolex for dropping by.
What you said is in...Thanks Rolex for dropping by.<br /><br />What you said is indeed true! The more $$ we earn, the more we spend. Think about it..if we were able to keep our spending constant while increasing our income CONSTANTLY...what results we can achieve.<br /><br />But of course that is very difficult because we will have to deny ourselves the fruits of our labors (e.g. a good meal, a nice house, a nicer car) which we always think we deserve.Financial Freedomhttp://sgfinancialfreedom.blogspot.comnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345069859964317097.post-57279316028097044742009-06-03T02:09:38.179+08:002009-06-03T02:09:38.179+08:00I totally agreed with everything you memtion about...I totally agreed with everything you memtion about the rat race. I had been caught in the rat race for many years and I can never see the finishing line. We, humans, can never be satisfied and contended with what we have. The more $$$ we have, the more $$$ we spend and more debts. <br />My passive income is only a fraction of yours, think I must keep the hard work building up my passive income. I enjoyed reading your post as it keeps me motivated to move and build up my passive income and towards financial freedom!!!Ledailycollectorhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07276066971015344909noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8345069859964317097.post-57276016273768273462009-06-01T23:20:48.704+08:002009-06-01T23:20:48.704+08:00Well said.

I have stopped looking forward for promotion and am happy to go home on time to spend my time with my family.Now I looked upon my wife who is enjoying doing everyday ie her job. I felt that to achieve freedom is not just earning passive incomes but to free yourselve from debts then you'll have e courage to do whatever you enjoy doing.
