Dear Aida,
Most people think financial freedom is a mystery —
a rare achievement reserved for the lucky, the brilliant, or the unusually wealthy.
But the truth is quieter, simpler, and far more democratic:
Early freedom is not built on luck.
It is built on math —
steady, predictable, unromantic math.
The math of freedom is not complicated.
It has no secrets, no tricks, no hidden formulas.
It is built on three forces:
How much you earn.
How much you keep.
How long you let compounding work.
That’s it.
But while the math is simple,
the discipline required to live by it is rare.
