Wow! So much to grasp from this post. You have successfully captured the tough reality of financial independence. Many people have fallen into the trap called “debt" even without realizing it, as a result of financial independence. Where you said people become more controlled and slaves to debt cycle resonates deeply and it's unfortunate that such a cycle is hard to break. This reminds us of how much we should be careful when making financial decisions, before we are hit with storms of life. It is really necessary!
