That sounds much more reasonable.

I appreciate what the author is saying, but his thesis isn't really well supported:

> Here’s the reality: if you’re not the type of person who can create freedom without a million dollars, you probably aren’t the kind of person who will get a million dollars.

... What? I'd be willing to guess that most people with a million dollars (which isn't really all that much money these days) probably have not put money second and freedom first. I know plenty of doctors and lawyers that are worth as much and work very hard. I don't know anyone who travels around free-spiritedly and is amassing large sums of money.
