Instead of telling yourself that you can’t do something, look at all that you have going for you and remember: You are the only one who limits you from getting what you want. And that includes achieving financial freedom.

Why do I refer to the financial calculator as both a retirement calculator and a financial freedom calculator? Well, because I challenge the notion (as I hope you will) that you must wait until you’re sixty-five before you can live the life you truly desire. Instead, I encourage you to replace the “R”-word, retirement, with two new ones: financial freedom.

Once again I want to offer a huge thank you to Gena and Jeff over at Ha Nui Loa for volunteering to review Money Smart, my personal finance book, and for inviting me to guest post on their blog.
I connect strongly with their message of living simply and I also participate in the slow-living way of life. While there may appear to be a discrepancy between the topic of money and simplifying your life, I can guarantee you that there’s a very strong relationship between the two.
Money isn’t the most important thing in life—living the life you truly desire is. I wrote Money Smart to give people tools to manage their money, create their own financial freedom, and build the life they want to live now. Living simply often plays a vital role in focusing on what is most important in life and creating financial freedom.
Take a moment to visit Gena and Jeff, and check out my post, Creating Financial Freedom and Living the Life of Your Dreams.
