I want to work on my financial status. Escaping the 8-5 work has always been my wish. For some of you who have managed to quit their jobs and run their businesses, what sources or books would you recommend one to check out on financial independence?

I had a day job and businesses and side hustles. I didn't quit my job until I reached financial freedom. Two salaries will get you to your goal much more quickly. Invest a percentage of your salary and all your business and side hustle income. Put a small percentage in crypto and hold long term. Also, index funds, property, etc.

It's easy if you invest regularly and don't buy crap you don't need.

For financial independence, check out "Rich Dad Poor Dad" by Robert Kiyosaki and "The 4-Hour Workweek" by Timothy Ferriss. They're great for new perspectives on money and working smarter, not harder. Also, "The Millionaire Next Door" by Thomas J. Stanley and William D. Danko is good for understanding the habits of successful savers. Don't forget blogs and podcasts like Mr. Money Mustache and The Financial Independence Podcast. Each resource offers unique insights, so find what resonates with your goals. Here's an article that's very interesting too. https://www.cuppa.so/post/on-a-financial-perspective-handling-entrepreneurial-leap

I think crypto or freight broker is the way to go

At a younger age, don’t spend too much, read on investment and master how money works. Society is designed to separate money from you. Check out this on secrets that are hidden to keep you poor.

I recommend books by Alex Hormozi.

In the first book you learn how to pick a right market/niche, how to create an offer, how set a price for the offer correctly, etc.

In the second one it gets more advanced: how to get engaged leads, how to reach out to people, how to grow your company, lead magnets, how to make ads, etc.

He doesn't mention the technical stuff much so I already went that way and discovered the best tools to maximize your potential.

One of the tools is this website builder. When you put your offer into it that's where the magic happens. Give it a try and see yourself, they also have a money back guarantee so when it doesn't work you get all your money back.

Good luck!
