“So when you gonna get a real job son
And buy a little real estate?
If that means living someone elses life
I guess we’re gonna have to wait
Another day”
~ Bob Evans, Hand Me Downs
Lots of people expect me to be more financially advanced than I am. Owning a house. A better car. And a yearly holiday. In my dreams.
Money expert Kylie Ofiu from Aspiring Millionaire wrote this guest post for my blog. Enjoy!
These days the pressure to be incredibly successful and wealthy is enormous. Pretty much anyone can become a celebrity it seems with reality TV being churned out like never before. It seems everywhere we look other people are living rich fantasy lives which puts a lot of pressure on those who are living on a more average wage.
Thanks for your interesting words, Kylie. It's definitely important to define success before you continue forward and it was very useful (and timely) for me to read such advice. I'm learning that success for me is more related to happiness and achievement, rather than financial reward (although that's also nice). It's very helpful to have that knowledge right beside me as I contemplate making changes in my working life. 🙂
