A Little Bit Richer · Is Financial Freedom Real? · 2 Jul 2026 podcast

And let's quickly talk about the gap as well between where you are now and that point of financial freedom.

What kind of behaviour

should somebody be thinking about if they want to close that gap faster.

And

Absolutely.

And also get to know the numbers.

Yes.

Because it sounds like sometimes people do shy away from them, but actually that's what's going to give you the information you need to make those changes.

There is this psychological element to wanting to meet those goals whereby people might think, Am I gonna miss out?

Am I going to have a bit of a a miserable time of it until I get to that point?

I'm just gonna be living in the future rather than living for today.

What would be

your advice around keeping today fun and joyful and happy whilst also working towards those goals?

That's a really great way of looking at it.

And and that concept of slow and flexible pounds, I feel that I have concentrated a lot on building up my pension in the last few years because I'm self employed and felt like I had to really catch up as my earnings got better.

But now I'm definitely going to be prioritizing flexible pounds a bit more and putting more money back into investing for the medium term.

So finally, Sammy, this has been such a fascinating conversation.

But if there is one thing that you would love

to leave our listeners and viewers with as they go away, make a cup of tea, wait for the kettle to boil.

What should they be thinking about if they want to achieve financial freedom?
