If you have read some of my past articles, you are familiar with my definition of financial freedom. It is freedom to focus on what is truly important to you and your family without trading time for a wage.

I’ve concluded that, regardless of our attitudes about money, the amount we have or any other individual factors, these are the main reasons so many people are experiencing money trouble:
Make Your Own Luck: Successful People Create Their Own Opportunities
Becoming Financially Free requires commitment, perseverance and a little luck. This article will give you a new perspective on luck.
“It was really an inadvertent thing,†Jason said of the profitable market niche he had stumbled on. After a moment, he added, “If I made a list of all the things in life I thought were coincidences and then looked back at them, I would see that they weren’t coincidences at all.†CNN Money
Exactly! Jason exemplifies the traits that British researcher Richard Wiseman ascribed to lucky people in a 2003 article called The Luck Factor:
