The Wisdom of Warren Buffett: Finding True Freedom from Money #Shorts

One of the biggest conversations around stoicism in our modern times is how stoic principles can help us achieve success and ever fleeting financial freedom.

We come across many people who have the answers to all our financial problems. They say they're visionaries, and we might roll our eyes at the get-rich-quick schemes. But even the most grounded of us might still consider their methods for a moment because we all want to be rich in some way or another.

Except, stoicism isn't there to get us rich. It's there to help us understand that by regulating our emotions regarding money, we can find more than financial freedom; we can find peace.

Look at somebody like Warren Buffett, a man worth $135 billion. He lives a simple life in Nebraska, in the home he purchased 60 years ago. As his riches grew, he didn't let impulses and emotions lead him; he maintained control over his finances. He found that true freedom came from removing any meaning he might have otherwise placed on money.

Buffett has been able to free any control that money might have had on him throughout his long life.
