kid talk about financial freedom part 2

After being in North America for so many years, my parents finally agreed to visit us for a few months. One day, my son asked me…

Son: mom, arent grandpa and grandma going to work anymore?

I: no son, they dont go to work anymore, they are already retired …

Son: you mean, they are financially free already? Wow! Must be great to be free.

I: i wish that was true, they are retired from work son…but that doesn’t mean they are financially free…

Son: ah, ok..i thought they are…i thought you would be financially free after working so many years…

I: no, that is not so…to be financially free, you have to plan well…you work smart not hard…
