#84 - Why Most People Chase the Wrong Freedom - How To Build a Life You Don’t Wish to Escape - Jason Graystone - Wealth Enthusiast, Investor, Author, Podcaster

DISCLAIMER: This podcast is for informational and entertainment purposes only. It does not constitute financial advice. Please do your own research or consult a licensed financial advisor before making investment decisions.

Hey everyone, my guest today is Jason Graystone - professional investor, author, podcaster, and educator on all things financial freedom. In this conversation, Jason shares how he went from a council estate to replacing his income by age 29, why most people chase the wrong kind of freedom, and what it actually takes to live a life you don’t want to escape from.

We talked about whether anyone can trade or invest, what makes some people completely unfit for it, and how Jason teaches wealth creation without the hustle! This ended up somewhat surprisingly being a deeper conversation around values, security, and designing your life from the inside.
