For me the biggest obstacle is the low level of my education which makes it difficult for me to find a good job that can give me the dream of financial freedom. All I do is look for extra income online.

The very fact that you can realize that, tells that the level of your education isn't that low, actually. Really uneducated people think that they know everything, and better than anyone. Only intelligent people are capable of self-criticism.

I'm thinking more about saving first and finding a good business that suits me.

Don't save. Invest in your education, if you feel like you need more of it. To have more knowledge is always better than to have more money. But it's not like I'm promoting a life of a homeless tramp with some "knowledge". No. I mean, eventually, you'll be able to make some good money using your knowledge.
my biggest obstacle is to spend money foolishly - and to trust others blindly and to be ready to do anything even if it costs my sweat and blood
I was foooled by so many and I was looted by so many - I love to live alone now.

Regardless where we live, money is our top priority in order to survive and thrive. Having enough money to fall back on means we are entitled to more choice and possibilities. Like it or not, we are chasing or being forced to chase money in most phases of our life. Financial freedom has been most people's ultimate goal for decades, if not for centuries. To achieve this goal, we will encounter endless challenges. Each of us has a unique life situation so what is your biggest obstacle to achieving it ? I know we can make a long list of problems but there must be one or two primary reasons that really hold you back. This is where we should focus and I would like to hear your story. Thanks.

Time is the only obstacle to achieving financial freedom for me. In a good job that pays well each month and that money goes into an investment portfolio mostly focused on shares. In turn those shares pay out dividends each month, helping to buy more shares and grow money that way, which will eventually pay a passive income large enough to live off without needing to work for it. Hopefully possible to earn enough to retire long before most people with just a few years of financial knowledge and being open to learning new things along the way. If you're always just working for someone else then you will have a pretty boring life and be subject to their whims all along.
The biggest obstacle to me to spend more than what I always earn.
I always try to take care of things but I am never successful in it. ..

The first and my largest barrier to earning money is capital— the actual money. We are unable to move or carry out the first steps of our business plan without money. Due to rising prices for goods, there is also no way to make a living. Lastly, there are no employment opportunities because no employers will hire me at my current age, making it difficult to make even a pennies.
A more logical obstacle. There are many ways to earn profit but the usual problem is the start or where would people get or start their journey. Another I think which could be an obstacle are regulations by government concerning taxes which lessens what people are actually earning form their job nd investments. Last obstacle i guess concerning financial freedom is, oneself. Many people have the drive to seek for money but not all people are willing to take the risk or every opportunity to earn. It is our action which would matter. This may also be related with employment issues you have mentioned. There are many ways to generate profit but there are just people who are choosing to complain more than to grab those chances.

Not self-disciplined.

Achieving financial freedom is everyone's dream.

But when we formulate a plan for financial freedom, we must fully take into account the impact of inflation.

Make an investment plan based on your principal, income, expenditure, investment time and inflation rate, otherwise you cannot achieve financial freedom.

Work hard and get rich and free soon.

Agree with what you said, Everyone has their own comfort conditions because in any case it does not mean that success in financial education will support their business conditions. This is too simple that sometimes in reality it is much more difficult.
Actually, if we talk about business, I personally feel that good financial education and teaching is only a stepping stone and this still cannot be used as a reference that with this they can do business well.
There are several other conditions that must also be met if you really want to do business and not everyone can do that.
I wanted to say that business can be a lifeline, but business is not for everyone. My friend tried several times to start his own business, but each time this ended in nothing. Therefore, I say that business is not easy and it is not for everyone. At the same time, I know people who work at jobs with very high salaries, and they don't even think about going into business because their incomes are very high. Everything is very individual, everyone should find the best option for themselves, and business is not the only way to earn big money.

In addition, it often takes a lot of money to start a business, and this is an obstacle for many. Therefore, I say that we must evaluate our capabilities and do what we can.

You are right. Business is not for everyone and most successful people in business have their own luck and opportunities which can not be duplicated. In my observation, my parents' generation was far more lucky to start their own business and succeed as there was a big seller's market many decades ago. Nowadays, if you don't have enough moeny and other resources to begin with, high chances are that you are doomed to fail. Business is not only way to earn big money and we ought to find a way to make enough money to support our family. Truth be told that many of us are not entitled to the access.

It can be an obstacle for now but when you learn to make your own way to surpass this thing you can be unstoppable. My own obstacle right now is money of course since I am really affected by sudden inflation and my salary is not enough for my family, so right now I am planning my things for 2023, planning for plan a and b of course not all things will go according to my way but it will be okay since I believe God has better plans. Maybe just find a new skill that will pay you more, more than your job online. having a limited number of work but has a good quality and bigger salary is better than having multiple but low salary and the quality of your work will be a problem.
Being a non-degree holder at the moment is not a big deal anymore since we can still earn big as long as the skills are there to make your work productive. Everything now lies on your own strategies in life, on how you will manage your life on the best way you can. Personally, my biggest obstacle right now is having no funds for investments. I have my own well compensated job but it’s just that all my income only go to my family’s needs. So I think I have to build new plans too so I can be much better version of me this coming 2023.
I can attest to this which is something that correlates into my situation now on where i have possessions and properties which is more than that my batchmates on college could attain.
Not to brag or to boast but you could really see the differences when it comes on what you do own.I didnt have a degree but i did earn more than with those who had graduated.
Im not saying that schooling is bad or not recommended but there are situations in life  which i had failed on studying or finished college but luckily i had able to
learn up crypto thing and do my best to be sustainable until i do reach out and buy things that i do like.Im not rich but im saying im not poor either.

Although this is not complete, I really agree with you saying "having a large and passive income is called financial freedom". Passive income plays a major role in financial freedom. We'll feel secure all the time even when we are sick or don't feel like working sometimes. Unfortunately, most people don't have the privilege and only work for wages, barely making ends meet. I envy those people who are financial independent not because they can do nothing to live, but because they are free to choose what to do or not. My parents are among them but I am not.

We really need to work even if we are sick so that we can meet our needs. It is really sad for those people who are still working so that they have money to bring back to the house, and lucky for those who have some sort of leave credits that they can use when they need to rest. The same people like me, not going to work would really greatly affect my salary at the end of the month, so even if you are sick, you still need to go to work. Having passive income is great, but again, it would be difficult and you'd be going through a lot just to achieve this.
These day we've got more opportunities on investment and on long term bonds through which one can get good sum of money. For users who fear of risking can prefer those form of investment for the financial freedom. The real financial freedom is investment on bitcoin, but majority doesn't make use of low bottom to experience the best at the short term.

Even when you're sick reaching the office for work is good. At the same time it is a must to give proper rest to the body. If not we'll experience a situation, we'll have money to enjoy through our hard work but our body condition will be bad.

Procrastination. This is the biggest obstacle.
I know what to do. I know how to do it or at least have an idea, but it is just damn difficult to get off my bum and do it.
Immediately I say this is what I would do and this is how I would do it, I suddenly lose all my energy, motivation or drive to do it. While sometimes, i start and I end up not having the sustaining power to see it through to the end.
Once I get overcome his, on the on the other side lies my financial freedom.
It usually happens when the person is at his comfort zone and don't want to leave it in order to try something new. It's hard to say what must happen to change the behavior, but I guess it's related to an inner discomfort you start feeling with yourself and your currently life conditions, until it becomes unbearable, so you finally find the needed energy to act.

There is also an important factor which influences procrastination on the individual: the quality of the influences around him daily. It can be friends or family. If the influences aren't good, you are going to have more difficult to start doing the things you know you have to do, but you don't, because you lack the energy and initiative.

I am not a good money manager and I am not good in deciding the things timely.
I delay my tasks and that is why I have suffered so much. I am now becoming more antisocial and I have started focusing on my own things.
My biggest aim of 2023 is to do work timely and have financial freedom.

Bad leaders are the obstacle in my financial freedom, because the rich are getting richer while the poor are getting poorer in the society just because the people on power refuse to do the right thing that will benefit the citizens in the environment. They refused to make Bitcoin legal in the country because they know that it will increase citizens financially and eliminate delay in transaction to give people financial freedom but they refused to allow such thing to happen in their regimen. Many people are tired of their Bank system based on the charges they are experiencing from the bankers which is not encouraging and the leaders refuse to take an action to end the situation.
I don't think banning bitcoin in your country is why you can't get rich. If you continue to be active on this forum, it means you can still earn bitcoin even if your country's government bans bitcoin. And one more thing, people who don't use bitcoin and they are also very rich, so it can't be said that banning bitcoin is the cause of your not being financially free. Our biggest obstacle is always blaming others when we can take the time to find a solution to the problem.
My biggest obstacle is the shopping addiction
I always plan not to go the malls. and when I stay home - I purchase stuff online. I hate myself for all the trash I purchase.
You can shop to your heart's content if you have a high income or you are financially free. I don't think saving can help us get rich, to be financially free, we need to work hard, work hard, do many things to succeed, not save. For me, spending on myself is the right thing to do because we work to earn money for that purpose, don't be too stingy with yourself, and don't think saving will help you to be financially free. Having a large and passive income is called financial freedom.

The biggest obstacle is not being able to choose, not knowing which industry will bring me new hope. In fact, it is even more sad, that is, the profession limits the imagination, and there is no basic skill. Many people told me that the encrypted world is fair, and I don’t deny that Bitcoin has brought us new hope, but watching my assets go by day by day, this feeling really can’t hold on to the day when Bitcoin soars. Hope this day comes sooner.

You just need to take a break from a wrong investment and try to be calm, focused, and always think positively. you, me, and everyone must have experienced times like this.

This won't help you get profit from your investment.  It can calm you yes, but it will not help you to be successful in acquiring profitable investments.  You need to learn from your mistakes, and do things that you need to do to make your investment successful.  Being positive, focused and has positive thinking won't do anything if you fail to acquire knowledge about your target investment.  So better to research everything about your target investment while having those characteristics stated by naira.

I know this is your difficult time, but our conditions are not always difficult, there must be little things that make it fun. Ever since you were little, have you ever wanted to buy something so that you saved every day to set aside some pocket money until you finally got the item you wanted to buy? Today is the same, if you have a strong determination and desire, no matter what obstacles come, you can go through them according to the portion of determination that you plant within yourself.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not just advising you but advising myself who is not much different from you  Smiley

That is a great encouragement but still lacking.  If you wanted to be successful or have a better chance of profit in your investment, you need to study your prospect.  This way you will know what your next move will be.

the biggest obstacle toward my financial freedom are a lot
I have difficulty saving and I spend abruptly without thinking. Also I made many bad decision while investing - so I lost so much money.
So does the aftermath of all this make you think it's unsuitable to invest in crypto? after all, everything has happened, many lessons have been learned, and mistakes in the past can be a reflection in the future. Not a few people fail to invest, including me. But there will come a time when the essence of financial freedom is not just about money. But it can be much bigger and broader in the definition of freedom.

You just need to take a break from a wrong investment and try to be calm, focused, and always think positively. you, me, and everyone must have experienced times like this.

Don't feel that life is that short, you are entitled to anything to be able to achieve what you want to achieve. Don't feel as though living in old age can no longer showcase the skills you have. Don't look weak, even though you know weakness doesn't mean you have to complain about the life you live. As long as you can breathe, walk and move around outside, no one knows someone's fate. Friends, did you know that we still live on earth?

Everyone experiences what you are feeling right now, but do they give up and end their lives just because their wishes don't match their expectations? some may be yes for the weak, but we still have a choice. It depends on how you enjoy life from which point of view.

Simple question:
can you still eat for today?
and is there anyone out there whose life is much more difficult than you?

if yes? then philosophize for today's favors !!
