Financial freedom means different things to different people. For some, it's saving millions and retiring early, while for others, it's traveling freely and dining without checking the bill. A viral ranking chart circulating on social media in Hong Kong has divided financial freedom into nine levels — from "iced drink freedom" to "housing freedom."
Come and find out which level you are in!
Level 1: Iced drink freedom
No need to think twice about paying an extra HK$2 for an iced drink.
Level 2: Coffee freedom
You can easily afford Starbucks, Luckin, or Blue Bottle coffee without resorting to instant coffee.
Level 3: Cheap & budget flights freedom
Hundreds of HKD for a budget airline ticket? You can book it anytime and enjoy the "luxury" of flying on a shoestring.
Level 4: Restaurant freedom
Spending a few thousand HKD on a meal feels like pocket change. You eat whatever you want.
Level 5: Designer bag freedom
You can drop tens of thousands on a luxury bag, and the cost over the years feels trivial.
Level 6: Business/First-class freedom
Your time and comfort are worth more than the price. You no longer even consider economy class when you travel.
Level 7: Financial independence
Your passive income from interest, rent, or investments is more than you can spend. The more you spend, the more you earn.
Level 8: Manpower freedom
You can afford to hire anyone you want. If HK$100,000 isn't enough, throw in HK$1 million, and if that's not enough, make it HK$10 million or even HK$100 million.
Level 9: Housing freedom
You own penthouses and luxury homes worldwide. You can live wherever you want, whenever you want.
