Oh please, what does “settled” mean anyways – most likely it means being tethered to job and reliant on a paycheck…having some mortgaged, car payments and all that nonsense.

Heck, even entrepreneurs are days away from going bankrupt. What happens when the business fails or he loses the job?

To me financial security means having enough monthly cash flow to NOT have to work a day in your life and still be comfortable. Instead of pushing a Maserati owned by the bank, driving a proper 5 series., instead of owning some mansion with taxes in the 5 figures, living in paid off decent house or a well located condo. Living comfortably but not the high life.

I’m talking about this because I have worked towards the goal of financial independence and it takes MANY years and disciplined savings to get there - so cut these potential rishta guys some slack.

This doesnt happen very often but…I do agree with you.
