Not financial freedom
Not financial freedom. Rather, using the money to invest in yourself.

For example:
- Tools and equipment for yourself
- The right clothes for yourself (Merino Wool, Outlier.nyc).
- Your own platform (bluehost.com and WordPress.org). Or starting your own platform (arsbeta.com)
- Your own blog [self hosted, paid]
- Music, cinema, or other types of media (paid).
