Financial independence
Topic
Financial independence is a state where an individual or household has accumulated sufficient financial resources to cover their cost-of-living expenses without having to depend on active employment. These resources typically come from investment portfolios, passive income, pensions, or other non-employment assets. Achieving this state allows individuals to maintain their desired lifestyle and gain complete control over their time.
