Seeking for social approval or instant gratification is the number one wealth killer when you are young. It will lock you inside a golden cage. A never ending rat race cycle. Especially if you are in your 20s or early 30s and have a job you should be very careful on what you spend your hard earned money on. Because these early years will decide how you will do financially for the rest of your life. There is so much distraction caused by ads, movies, social media or even your environment that makes you feel the urge to spend your money...

I am wondering if you are a very low income earner, is it possible to achieve financial stability if your income is not enough for the daily necessities?
It's tough. If you can't manage to earn more by working two jobs or educating yourself you probably can't achieve financial stability for yourself in such a situation. Unless you are really lucky... Maybe I'm living in a "spoiled" environment because of the social security system here...
Which is what I'm thinking..if I pursue teaching, I can't have more than one job but when I pursue freelancing, I can have more than two jobs.
You should really do that. Also a second income stream will make you more independend.
