Free and poor with zero doubt. I am pretty poor, and its very freeing.

FWIW, I don't think you can be free and poor, because if you're free you cannot be poor.

How so? I dont need material wealth to be free.

I was trying to figure out a way to word this. What I mean is, if you are free then that is axiomatically the opposite of poverty regardless of relative wealth. Freedom can be a consequence of wealth but the state of poverty inhabits the body of no free man.

Well, the question seemed to imply material wealth. Rich or poor.

Oh I get it. And I agree with you. But that's not what the OP was asking.

For me, I measure wealth by my health. And in that sense, billionaires aint got shit on me

🤔…all I know is the great Janis Japlin once said “freedom’s just another word for nothing left to lose”

…it’s my 2cd favorite snippet from a lyric of all time🫡🌅⭕️
