It is not about saving money consistently. Sure, save money towards acquiring some income producing assets such as property. Passive income is key, so the money keeps coming in whether you're working or not. For example, the rental income, and other income sources from my investment properties keeps rolling in, whether I am writing, editing and publishing or not. It's liberating. Saving money did set the wheels in motion, however it is about negotiating and acquiring the right assets. Work in a career you're passionate in, and that is a bonus.
