My Goal of Financial Independence and how to Reach it Via Web Developer Professionalism
My goal and how to get to it step-by-step as directly as possible.
My goal is to maintain a state of financial independence, so that if I can't work (for any one of numerous reasons like disability, unemployment, old age, need to care for a disabled loved one, want to travel the world for a month in the summer, etc. etc. ) then my income will still support me until I get back to work.
How to attain financial independence?
