What’s your definition of success? Is there a magic number, lifestyle, number of people helped, families supported (including your own)?
Everyone has their own goals. For me its financial freedom and not worrying about any bills with a property paid off.
Just started making over 500k a year (with multi year contracts) and still not satisfied. I’m thinking at 1m/yr I will be, but maybe not. Need to buy that property free and clear. Btw, my metrics on home have changed. Had a 4/3 house with a large pool in the backyard. Now want a house with a view of the ocean. The idea that will somehow make me happier is part of this post.
Did you hit your goal and level of success? Were you satisfied when you did?
I like working so a part of my success is always having something to do. Also having freedom and control that allows me to work on whatever wherever. Nobody tells me what to do. Financial freedom has a lot to do with it and that means a strong cash flow. So $$ is never a problem. It’s like I have a money faucet. When I need or want more money I just open the faucet and out it comes. So I always need to protect the faucet. That is success. I don’t need to be there working constantly. But if I’m not involved the faucet can be compromised. So my focus is on the faucet. And that creates many opportunities for me to have something to do.
I want to never look in my bank account & wonder if i can afford things. Then create some great company to solve alot of problems. Then I want a family.
Thats success to me
