To me freedom is just as much about your own ability to enforce self-imposed constraints as it is the ability to do anything you want.

Often, when I have time to do anything I want it's because I followed my own constraints (saving money, eating right, working out, attempting to be a good person) long enough. I guess that's why they say freedom isn't free. You have to pay for it with SOMETHING. Those things I listed are the currency of freedom, not just having enough USD shitcoin.

That's why usury is so bad: you're robbing your own future freedom for what? A fucking Nissan?

Dave Ramsey preaches "constraints" and the freedom (happiness) it gives you.

Passing a test got me a 20,000 a year raise. And the test only cost $125.

You're Nissan must be really neat.
