How do you achieve complete freedom in this day and age?
>>
>>521057072
Do absolute minimum. Live a modest life. Don’t have family. Just enjoy being alone.
>>
>>521057072
Same as always, spiritual enlightenment.
Very difficult though, I would estimate that the total number of human beings that have achieved such a state of mind during the entire history of the human race might be in the dozens.
>>
Total freedom requires total power.
Total power, omnipotence, is possible through the teachings of Jesus Christ.
I have omnipotence.

10 millions united states banknotes would probably do the trick

>>521057072
Depends. One mans freedom is another mans cage. What do (you) consider freedom?

Money = Freedom.
Anything else is a cope.
That's quite literally the only realistic answer, as every other answer will leave you under the heel of some ruling system.
You can live in total poverty in the middle of nowhere tending to your crops and feel good about yourself, however without wealth the system will be able to fuck you up if it wants to and there's nothing you can do about it.
However if you have fuck you money, you can move at a moment's notice anywhere you want.
If it looks like your own system is going to shit, you just up and leave. If you have a medical problem, you can pay to get it fixed and you're not reliant on any system doing it for you.
Only way to make money nowadays is to invest into something, as it's the only possible leverage you can use to reach a point of not having to give a shit.

Money will never free you because you will always serve it.
If it can be taken from you, you were never free.
>>
>>521057072
freedom is a meme and doesn't really exist.
you should seek power instead of freedom.
that's what you really want, you've just been tricked into thinking freedom is really want as a way of enslaving you.
remember, a slave seeks freedom, a master seeks power.

>>521057632

The idea that you'll always serve money is a retarded bullshit concept, that was likely invented by some poorfag who wanted to appear virtuous, likely in the religious side of things.
>I may not be rich but you can never take my faith!
>Now I'll continue to slave away in a factory in shit conditions for my rich masters, but I'm totally happy! Happier than they even.
>Those rich guys who own my life and don't have to do shit and are even above the law, are in fact miserable as they are forced to serve money and I don't have that issue because I'm poor but I have Jesus.
Well more power to you, but we all know this is bullshit.

The reason why so many richfags do nothing but try to make infinite money, is because a lot of them are the exact same as retarded normies, who have no real interests or even any personality.
Only thing these guys can think of doing is just making more money, because that's all they have going on for themselves.
However if you're a sentient person with any kinds of hobbies or actual interests, you can make money and not make it the center of your existence.

What kind of freedom?
Financial? Responsibility? Worry?

Would not consider this a freedom, as there is much more into it; and i've been NEET for good 10years.

Sorry Finnbro, money does not equal freedom. It might equal material comfort, but it is not freedom.

~1.5 mil NW and a paid off home/car
enough to comfortably take out about 60k per year (ideally in long-term cap gains so you'll pay little to no tax)
that's fuck you money and not actually a hard thing to achieve

>>521058917
Are you going to actually provide an argument here or just be wasting everyone's time?
>>
>>521057072
>Be independently wealthy (freedom from necessity)
>Have no pre-existing conditions or hereditary diseases (freedom from fate)
>Genuinely enjoy living by yourself (freedom from others)
>Make your peace with death (freedom from self)

Fags on /biz/ who obsess over "making it" dont even realize that it is just the first step. If it is any consolation to you OP, hardly anybody makes it

Freedom is happiness
The financial part is unavoidable, some people can't accept non traditional success, but you can change that.
Some people though can't accept not doing what is right of them, what they feel compelled to do and achieve not for themselves but for something greater. I think for these people freedom can only ever be achieved by following that path, in spite of all of the easier roads that would surely prevent themselves. Personally I would never do anything that would make me unhappy for a long period of time as I don't really consider that to be a free or fulfilling life. So I don't understand how people push themselves and make themselves suffer daily without trying to seek any alternative solution possible. There's also health, which I think is an absolute prerequisite for everything. The capability to do and the beauty it gives you are mandatory for true freedom, without them you will never feel complete as a human I think. All of these things you can learn to cope and deal with them, and I don't think that's a bad thing, but I do think it's bad to accept coping as the default rather than seeking change and utilizing your capability to cope with it as a tool. This is why I'm very weird personally about drug use, as it is certainly a tool that can and has allowed many people to achieve success in life. We're taught to accept what we have and mediocrity and live in a world where we're taught it's hopeless. It's not. You can literally just do anything. Figuratively and literally. I'm certain a lot of people here could achieve anything if they were healthy enough and found the right balance of coping, finding happiness, and utilizing willpower. I'm just a NEET still, so take everything I say with a grain of salt, but despite that I've managed to become middle class and live in a major city with just determination 2 do so. Sacrifices have to be made smetimes though I think regardless. Just think about what you want & do whatevr it takes

Any proof? Or just schizo rambling?
