I can retire if I want to but I choose to work on my terms and conditions to help people as part of day to day employment. The reason is starting this blog and Youtube channel is to help people reach their financial aims and dreams so you too can become financially free. The journey to reach your goals is not a get rich quick scheme but it will be rewarding and worthwhile in the long run if you take the right action steps.
