That's why I'm doing everything within my power to work towards getting financially free. It's not easy and it takes time, but I'm getting closer than I've ever been.
It's something more immediate and realistic than hoping index funds will carry me one day (and it avoids some taxes... the 8 extra hours don't pay so well after taxes).
Good luck to you though, I hope it all works out for us!
Might work if you trust index funds, earn quite well in the first place or (plan to) live in a cheap country and you are willing to do the grind for a few years.
It's a big stress reliever knowing that if things go bad, you can always jump ship.
