5 Glowing Signs Freedom Is In Your Financial Future In 5 Years Or Less
Your future is bright. Maybe you can put on some sunglasses as you read this article.
In my daily joy of speaking with brilliant expats, I get the gift of revealing to you that you are about to enter a fast lane to financial freedom, beyond your imagination…
All through the power of cash flow:
Without long contracts. Without unnecessary risk. Without a tenant or a toilet.
I show this path to self-taught traditional investors, seasoned property investors, and even multi millionaires (yes, just because your net worth is in the millions doesn’t mean you feel free.)
I also enjoy revealing this path to clever, intuitive beginners who just want to outsource the process, guarantee their success and just lock their freedom without too much sweat.
My favorite people to speak to: they just see evidence, do due diligence, but ultimately “trust the feeling” and move.
I will show you 5 signs your financial freedom is coming towards YOU fast.
But remember just because you see the potential, doesn’t mean you move and have the results. Don't get trapped just paralyzed in the potential.
If you understand that you are ready and it’s coming towards YOU, but you don’t take action, all knowledge will be meaningless.
With that disclaimer, here are 5 signs you will accomplish something rare and extraordinary in your financial life in the next 5 years...
1) You've explored investing on your own already
You know what stocks, bonds, ETF, mutual funds, etc are.
Maybe you’ve opened an IBKR/SaxoBank/Swissquote/Wio account and picked your own winning stocks.
Maybe you just opened the account and did nothing. Maybe you’ve tried roboadvisory platforms and learned more about capital markets.
If you've heard the name Dave Ramsey, Ramit Sethi or the book titles Everyday Millionaires, Millionaire Teacher, Psychology Of Money, Expat Millionaire…
Congratulations! You're in a fantastic, fertile place to build a life of true freedom.
Even if you lost money with your last investment. Even if you didn't put any money in the IBKR account.
You put in the time, effort and money to learn about what makes a great financial life. Even if you feel ashamed or embarrassed around your current situation or the outcome of past moves, this is the perfect place to be.
2) A monthly income you are finally happy with
I'm not saying you don't wish things were even better, however, you have cash left at the end of every month with a lifestyle you enjoy.
Depending on your expenses, this may be more or less than AED 30K/month mark.

You are valuable in the market place, you feel intellectually engaged in what you do. You’ve found a bit of Ikigai after several years of working, even though you may still have other aspirations.
3) Your work feels like a good fit... for now.
You have moments of truly enjoying your work. You are needed by your team and respected by your network. You feel challenge as well as connection and camaraderie. You're not in a hurry to escape... even though you wouldn't refuse more money, more freedom or more options.
The double edged sword of a good workplace is there is pressure, duty and obligation… But you feel the future is generally bright.
4) Emotional maturity with money.
You care about how you and your family feel in your financial life more than you care about numbers.
You’ve earned, spent and invested enough money to know that how you feel is important in your financial life.
Your net worth number and a property is a nice to have…
But the true sign of wealth is how you feel when you wake up in the morning.
Are you in a good mood? Are you doing what you meant to do?
You've realized any financial plan that you commit to must enhance how you feel, allow you to enjoy your life more, and make things easier, not more difficult.
This is only way for you to sustain an investment process.
5) You envision more freedom for yourself
Maybe you want to start a business in the next 24 months without worrying about running out of money, while supporting your wife and kids.
Maybe you are dreaming of a different career that fits your life & personality more and you’re thinking of ways to handle a possible pay cut with growing kids.
Maybe you want to travel for 3 months every summer with unpaid leave without worrying about.
Either way, you are dreaming a bigger dream than the “long-term wealth building” gurus told you was possible… and you suspect there’s a way to make it happen, fast.
For those of you who've made it...
Congrats! An abundant future awaits.
