Time for a Quick One, What does Financial Freedom Mean?


Listen Later

It’s time for another quick one with Dawn and Tracy. In a short clip taken from episode 68 with guest Michelle Herbert, the ladies get stuck into the question of what financial freedom actually means. Is it more money than you can spend or is it just the freedom to do what you want when you want? And how do you achieve financial freedom? Pop the kettle on, sit back for 10 mins and enjoy a quick one with Dawn and Tracy.

KEY TAKEAWAYS

  • What does financial freedom really mean and does it mean the same thing for everybody? The ladies discuss. 
  • Could financial freedom be about being realistic and setting realistic goals for yourself?
  • Is there even such a thing as financial freedom or is it really just freedom of choice?
  • The ladies discuss the connection between financial freedom and work. If you had £200 million would you give up your job or would you start a new career or does financial freedom mean you are free to not work?

BEST MOMENTS
“Financial freedom to me is a complete bollocks statement.”
“A lot of people selling the concept of financial freedom are working 75 hours a day.”
“Money makes money.”

ABOUT THE HOSTS
Dawn and Tracy are real women who are fed up with all the “noise” out there in the real world. Life isn’t simply rainbows and unicorns, it's broken relationships, hard work, hot sweats and never ending laundry baskets.  But life as a real woman is also about being honest, having good gossip and speaking our truths. Whether it’s peeling yourself into your spandex for a night out, or running a business meeting barefoot because the heel has fallen off your stilettos, there is always something to laugh about in life.
Dawn is mid 50’s mid menopause straight talking business maverick.  Four kids, three grandchildren, two businesses, one husband and a self proclaimed “hottie”.
Tracy is a mid 50’s awesome mum, business and property mentor. Proud of her raw, honest nature, “bonkers” sense of humour and good old-fashioned northern humility.

PODCAST DESCRIPTION
