Here are the steps you need to follow to also get financial freedom.:
1. Create a net worth statement.
2. Next to every line item, type in the yearly income or outflow of the asset.
3. Create a comprehensive plan to get to financial freedom.
1. Create a net worth statement.
Creating a net worth statement is the first step in achieving financial freedom. To create a net worth statement, you need to take inventory of your assets and liabilities. Assets include any property or investments that you own, such as a house, car, stocks and retirement accounts. Liabilities include any debt that you owe, such as credit card debt, student loan debt, or a mortgage. You should list out all of your assets and liabilities and calculate the difference between them. This will give you your net worth. When creating a net worth statement, it is important to think creatively about your assets. For example, instead of just looking at your house as an asset, consider how you could use it to generate passive income, such as by renting out a room or building an addition. With regard to retirement accounts, ask yourself if they are providing the income you need in order to retire when you want. Lastly, if you have cash, think about how you can use it to generate passive income and reach financial freedom quicker. For liabilities, consider if the debt you owe is allowing you to buy something that can generate passive income in the future. This will help you to determine if the debt is necessary or if it should be paid off. Once you have accounted for all of your assets and liabilities, you will be able to calculate your net worth and begin to create a plan to achieve financial freedom.
2. Next to every line item, type in the yearly income or outflow of the asset.
In order to complete step 2, which involves typing in the yearly income or outflow of each line item on the net worth statement, you must first create a net worth statement. This can be done by downloading the spreadsheet provided in the show notes or by using a financial planning portal. Once the net worth statement is created, you can begin to fill out the yearly income or outflow of each line item. Start with your home, and consider if it is generating passive income for you. If not, think of creative ways that it can start to generate passive income. Then move on to your retirement accounts and determine if they are providing the income you need to stop working at the age you want to. Consider if you should be investing more aggressively in order to retire earlier. When it comes to cash, think of ways that it can be used to generate passive income.
3. Create a comprehensive plan to get to financial freedom.
Every move you make in your financial life impacts another aspect of your finances. As an example, choosing to invest more in dividend-paying stocks creates more taxable income that may put you in the next tax bracket, or opening a new account may require that you update your estate plan. A net worth statement is one small but powerful step you can take to start getting closer to financial freedom, but don’t forget to consider what other changes you may need to make as you start changing the way you invest.
With the right plan and knowledge, you can achieve financial freedom. Take the time to think creatively about your assets and liabilities and optmize your assets and cash to generate passive income. With dedication, you can take control of your financial future and break the cycle of trading time for money.
