I believe a strategy
of living far below one's means and investing that excess
capital in wonderful businesses that have a history
of sharing increasing profits with
shareholders in the form
of increasing dividends is a great way to replace one's traditional job income with a more passive
source of income, thereby allowing the freedom necessary to pursue life
as one sees fit.
