Reasons to be Financially Free: To buy that must-have Doodad

Life is not only about investing, it is also about having fun.

Anybody who has read any of Robert Kiyosaki’s books in the “Rich Dad, Poor Dad” series (so mindset-changing) will have heard of doodads. These are items that we buy that we don’t need, that act as a drain on our pocket. Rich people wait until their investments are paying for them before they buy Doodads.

Here’s a list of the Doodads that I aspire to:

Golf club membership (not for the golf, for the yoga, gym, swimming and massage!
A horse
A nice car – possibly a BMW again, I miss that, but it would need to be an estate/ touring for the kids & the labrador…
Another nice car – I am a sports car person at heart, but then, that’s not very environmentally friendly.
A lovely annual holiday abroad like our trip to Australia – now wouldn’t that be just great?

By visualising the life that you want to live (while not being discontent with your current life) it makes it more likely that you will take the steps necessary to bring it to life.

Make a list! Let it inspire you!

Here’s to a financially free future!
