For most people, their Monday through Friday involves waking up to a ringing alarm, commuting an ungodly distance to work, taking orders from a boss for 8 hours, and commuting back home leaving them with just enough time to eat and watch a show on Netflix. Sadly, most people are destined to repeat this mundane way of life for the next 40 years, trapped in the perpetual cycle of working to pay bills and ultimately make the companies they work for richer than they already are. Depressing, right? Well, fortunately, there is a way out of this rat race.

There are much easier and better ways of achieving freedom. It starts with rejecting what you have been conditioned to want.
Well said
You nailed it.
That exactly how I think.
How do i do that
@@adammorra3813 Become aware of the ways you have been conditioned and recognise the difference between what you need and what you want.
Agree
Escaping the rat race is not about making more money and achieving financial freedom. This is what most people get wrong. Escaping the rat race is an awakening. Realizing that you are spending your life chasing after something that you do not need. This whole system is a game. You are taught to be a consumer. Make more money so you can spend more money. Your entertainment is plagued with advertisement to get you to want to work for more money so you can afford that shiny new item.
spot on
I started my own business now im working 7 days a week.
lol
“gRaB mY cOuRse “ yea right I ain’t paying sh%*
Lol
When I graduated college, I thought I would be getting a fancy, lucrative job with my bachelor’s degree….What a shock it was, going from place to place with my resume and being turned down or offered some of the worst jobs. I lived in an apartment so run down I would not let my friends visit me. I worked at call centers most of my career, rejoined the Army Reserves and retired at age 60 with a pension. I could not wait to get out of full time work and I am much happier now.
Totally my story. I hope you feel my empathy from far away. You are not alone. ❤
Best way to escape the rat race is to win the lotto jackpot.
Gambling, you must be joking
Avoid lifestyle inflation
This is the way
How is saving $4K a month practical for most people? You might as well say this is a 'practical plan' for a handful of high-income earners, NOT most people.
Another way to escape the American rat race is to save and invest to create passive income and then move to another country. 💯
yes 100% agree or be semi retired 6 months on 6 months off. or one year on and one off. Also remote work options while overseas earn in dollars and spend in other currency.
@@muradshawar indeed. American Benjamins 💵 go a far way overseas.
@@morelife7625 Also the passive income you need to create to retire early overseas is 1/4
you would need in America .
Cuz the working class won’t demand higher wages and better working opportunities but instead vote for terrible representatives that don’t have their best interest in mind.
Politicians are not going to fix your problems 💀
there is NO WAY 93% of americans have side hustles. I can count like 3 people I have ever known to have such a thing
Yeah I was going to say the same thing.
@@muradshawar it was supposed to be 3 out to 9.
Alot of Americans now dont even have time to themselves.
Not even side hustles
Most people are too exhausted to sude husle and the ones that are are doing easy cheap work in the first place like mopping foors as a dayjob then selling bracelets online to make lik£100 exstra a month
I escaped in 2017. I did not know what bliss was until I finally LIVED through it. It's like we've been conditioned to clip off our wings before we figure out we were born to fly. What a horrible thing it is. But luckily, escaping is much easier than you think...
How
@@Giopowered Flip stuff for a profit
its hard to get out the rat race because if everyone did it the economy would collapse
Collapse for good. Go back to villages and eating real food
Don’t forget about the snowball effect when paying student loan debt😢
As soon as you move out of parents house you're in the system for life then.
I'm posting this on Facebook. It's that good. I intuited at a pretty young age, that something was severely wrong; but couldn't logically put my finger on it. But the way you explain it really makes things crystal clear.
Ugh, the rat race is the worst. I'm tired of running on this never-ending wheel, trying to get ahead. It's time to break free and start living the life of my dreams (or at least a little bit more comfortably).
Thanks for shedding some light on why it's so hard to escape the rat race, now it's time to come up with a plan to break free and start living life on my own terms (or at least make a little more money on the side).
I just got my first job as a courier at Glovo in Romania. The thing is I really like it, I just deliver food, it reminds me back of the days when I was a teenager and I was delivering weed in my city with my bike. The bad thing is is that it's not a good long-term career. In my opinion the best incomes are made online. It's very doable. Depends on each person how much they need/want. For me 2k $ or euros online would be more than enough because I have an apartment from my mother in my city and I don't have to pay rent. In my opinion, you escape the rat race first in your mind: do you really want those designer clothes or that fancy house/car? You know you don't need it, but do you really want them? If not, stop paying for them. Some people do really want them. Every person should meditate hard on their needs and wants. Weigh how much you want each thing you're craving. Is it worth the effort?
Purchase undeveloped land with a well. Large solar generator and rv solar panels. Wood stove dogs for protection one year of freeze dried food. Chickens and a garden. Start building your shelter. You have all but eliminated your biggest expense federal, State County And city taxes. Low property taxes. You now have air conditioning electricity water food and shelter. Freedom. You are welcom. Get out of their system. It’s broken
Life's a bit£h; rent, student loan, life insurance, car insurance, food, utilities bills, clothes, cell phone etc 😳
I'm 28 and finally escaped the 9-5. I replaced it with an 11-7, but at least the days of 9-5 are behind me.
Lmaoooo
Great! I did away with 9 to five job and stuck to my 11 to 6 pm self employment undertaking.I have almost made it and Iam at peace with myself.
😂
😅very good

Two ways to become wealthy - acquire more or desire less...
i wish more ppl knew this
Rat race = 👎….This video = 👍
Financial freedom is the key
Money can depreciate any time.
My last job I was up at 8:46 4:30 am , drove about an hour on highway to start at 6 painting a construction site while supervised by a son of a bitch until 1:30 , back on highway, home by 3. Bed by 8:30. I also did side hustle as bartender, but after a while I was too exhausted to do it and the late nights didn't work. And I have a university degree.
Bad solution imo
Investing is the way to go, saving will never make anyone rich, especially considering the inflation!
0.47 was a very good question many can't answer. 💯
10:30 starts here then booommmm you need to spend for the course lol
Typical

*another passive income scam spotted
driving for uber is a fools errand.
I love the video
The instrumental ain’t my favorite tho
Very few can leave the rat race. So although good advice. The way out is either fast through insane luck (not realistic) or slow 🐌 (decades slow). So what's a third more realistic approach? Have a job, profession, career you enjoy and can be proud of that allows you to pay your bills and have some $ left over to save and enjoy.
The trouble with that is not enough people get to do a job/career they enjoy....
@@Ballerism correct.
Well, no body said you can't work your job and try things on the side that may pop off. It's always good to at least try different things and something may work out even if it does take time.
@@artorias-24 absolutely 💯 it's what I did. And I just freed myself.
"assuming 7% return" LOL
Its easy just dont work for someone els replace your boss with customers
ours is 6 days in a week in saudi arabia 💔
By the grace of god I was able to escape. Paid off a house in a Major US city by the age of 38, retired after 22 years and have a six figure pension (Military), completely debt free, and a paid for Bachelors and Masters Degree. There are faster ways, but this is the route I took.
Could have been mine if only I stayed single
@@dreameryoung38 😔
This was my way of escaping the rat race too 😊 God bless you and thank you for your service.
Always try to improve!
you can escape the rat race , if you stop being a rat , literally said
Only answer is crypto... Honestly... I invested 10k and now I have a little over 165k... Quit my job immediately and used my gains in a single account for bills..(2years). Other account I use for backu and the rest reinvested... Praying that in the next 2 years pls explodes ,.. 10x makes me a millionaire
This is the way.
Interested in your opinion after crypto bubble burst, what are the challenges in life now, what are the lessons learnt ?
It's so easy to get caught up in the cycle of trying to keep up with others and chasing after success, but it's important to remember that true happiness and fulfillment don't always come from material possessions or career accomplishments. The advice to focus on your values and prioritize what truly matters to you is so important.
Personally, I love my job and intend to work here at the Mariners Museum until I can no longer physically work at all.
“93% of Americans have a side hustle”? That’s BS
The way to escape the rat race is to create one
Thanks for the calculations which help a lot to set a decent standard of living ! 🦋
It's designed to keep you in it.
Happy new year
