I am less worried about this goal. Not because I am closer to becoming financially independent, or that I am making more money. I just began to realize that I will probably be able to find another job if money gets tight. I have a Masters degree. I can also live off credit for atleast a while. I don’t think I will end up homeless. Once I finish school and get a job I will be able to live thriftly and pay everything off. The only person I have to take care is me and I have no one depending on me financially.
