In the end, I chose to let minimalism set me free, & my "successful life"? I chucked it all away.
How you grow up affects you forever, but we always have a choice. You’d think growing up with less would make want more as an adult, but the opposite turned out to be true.
When I had to rewrite my life story anew, it was the lessons and habits I’d learnt growing up with less I turned to instinctively.
This is my story.

Do you think your childhood determines who you are as an adult, or do you also believe we can choose?
@michaelchristophergutierre7244
We are programmed as children by our environment. Our caretakers and experiences shape our world view (good or bad). But we have something called resilency that gives us the strength to change to be better. Nature vs. nurture. Its not binary but both influence who we become But we have the keys to the kingdom. Life will either make us bitter or better. It was and is a tough process but i chose better Thank you Jean for your content Michael.

Priority changes, but my dream to travel the world never change since childhood. I used to think I need a lot money to travel the world but working holiday in oversea taught me the other way. I used to think my job and career are my primary objective but corporate world & red-tape are cruel. I used to think money is more important but burnout and resignation gave me a relief. I earn less now as compared to a fix job & salary, but my investment income is sufficient to cover my daily life and travel now. Typical Asian mindset always money money home la ...

Hi Jean I had a similar upbringing in Sydney. My family are Italian and I remember both my parents working so hard to pay the mortgage, bills, food and to clothe us. Mum used to shop at St Vincent De Paul for clothes, and I use to enjoy going with her, searching for $1 dresses and shoes etc. it was so much fun. It taught me to how to turn a simple little outfit into something Beautiful. I became so creative with my clothing. I’m such a bargain shopper because of that experience. I had one stuffed dog which I adored. We spent most weekends down the beach playing in the sand and rock climbing. Dad grew his own vegetables and we had chickens too. I thank my parents for giving us the simple things in life, great food, adventures in nature and showering us with love. I appreciate everything and have so much gratitude because of it. We don’t need a lot of stuff that’s for sure. I cut my hair too! lol 😂 love your channel 💖

I'm over 50 and have lived almost my entire life with very few possessions, just because I've always dislike clutter in my home or surroundings, plus I traveled a lot as I grew older. I never knew the word "minimalist" existed until about 7 years ago on RU-vid, but still don't understand why people feel the need to label themselves. We all live under very different circumstances/environment, so live your life the way you see fit and just be happy 🥰

To really understand and come into peace with who you are is a liberating feeling. All my life I have genuinely listened/trusted what society/mainstream seemed to be good. I studied hard and got into the best school, joined sports team, participated in social event, found a good job/what people viewed as a respectable job, and really performed and worked diligently. However, deep down I’m always in stress. I realize I’ve been doing everything that conflict with who I am. It’s like an introvert trying to fake it as an extrovert. I made peace with myself since. Fancy material things/meeting society expectations means nothing to my inner peace. I just wanna be nice to myself now and life a simpler life where I belong.

My generation (I am 71) works hard just to survive and provide a good home for children. So I am used to minimalist lifestyle and I am truly happy. Glad to hear that a younger generation who can earn a high income chooses to live minimalist lifestyle. My daily expense is less than $5 including 3 meals. This is possible if you live in Bangkok's perimeter. In my housing village, freshly brewed hot capuchino costs only $1 (30 baht) and box meal is also $1. I have retired for 11 years now and my savings don't even dip as interests from investment fund is enough to cover my annual expense. I don't buy clothes for one year now and every year, I gather some old clothes and donate them to charities.

Your childhood reminds me a lot of my own. I grew up in public housing with both my parents always working, saving things in case it is useful in the future, and repairing as much as possible. Unfortunately, my parents never got that big break and still lives in the same public housing unit (USA) where I grew up over 50 years ago now. Similar to you, I got a good job and saved money but therapy has helped me understand that it was to build a sense of safety and stability that was missing in my childhood. I’m turning 50 now and have found your videos helpful to release my need for stability and find the courage to embrace the uncertainty of not having income and moving to another country where I can geoarbitrage my savings. Thank you for making this video. It’s adding to my courage to make the move, quit my job and start living in a more meaningful way ❤

Hello, Jean I was awestruck by your courageous decision to settle down in Bali, giving up on your promising career as a corporate lawyer in Singapore. I was all about passing the bar exam in Japan in my twenties and failed at it. But when I visited Tianyar in Bali for volunteering in education, I realized being surrounded by nonchalant local kids is my purpose of life, Ikigai! Ever since then, I have meaning to move to Bali. I have been struggling with financial planning so far. But your videos encourage me so much. Thank you, and I hope you and your husband do well.

I'm over 60, laid off last year in the Financial Sector at the heart of Canadian finance. The Corporate life was a treadmill. Yes. I had never earned more. But stress and time are also important. I may actually 'retire' for good, rather than pursue another $100K after-tax. Being a frog in a boiling pot is dangerous. Today I am earning minimum wages just being outside working at a golf course and I am happy. I still drive an 18 year old car but that's okay, for the first time in 40 years, my time is truly my choice.

Your investment philosophy and strategies for passive income, minimalist and active lifestyles to achieve happiness and financial freedom resonated with me. I'm from SG too.

The generations are the ties we have not the objects, the living things are the most important to the idea we are the true intelligence. The object of living is to draw the essence of life itself that reflects that you are part of the small and the whole thing that surrounds you. There is only one living state and that is eternity.

I am glad it worked out for you but not everyone can do the same. If 😂 I was making a lawyer's salary, I wouldn't be buying Gucci bags or designer clothes. I would probably be a minimalist and travel. My Asian parents were poor growing up working long hours. I live in Canada but i wish i lived in Bali or somewhere with no winter. I have a good job now but I am not wealthy to quit. Rent here would be too expensive and appartment is small. I keep my job but I am also a minimalist because it's hard for me to not worry about money after being poor so long. I don't own much clothes and now that i have money from my job, i am afraid to spend much. I keep worrying I will be laid off or become sick to work. My only weakness is buying some art supplies in hopes of using them. Unfortunately they are starting to accumulate and i have no time to use them. I have a good job now but i never go out to eat (unless it's for some special occasion), and it's difficult to push myself to buy new clothes. I have never been much of a spender. Sometimes i wish i could buy some takeout food after working long hours overtime but i try to put it off...and I tell myself that it will only feel temporary satisfying and i will be stuck with that habit and losing my money when I don’t know if i will always have regular income... I don't know how to enjoy myself without worrying about being poor again. I'm tired of working overtime but I would be too scared to not work and not have income. Congrats to being able to pull it off. I am sure it must have been difficult earlier on with your parents.

In my twenties i went crazy and kept buying lots of junk in hopes to be interesting or cool enough tobecome popular. I slowly learned that being popular has a very dear cost, your soul. I was not only not willing to pay that price, but i lost interest because i had to care for my family through my early thirties. The energy now required to basically function has completely drained me of any desire to do extravagant things or go fancy places. Everytime i splurge on myself i feel guilty and also very empty. Like a gap that can never be healed. so i am reducing activities and belongings because peace matters way more to me than getting fickle attention

This is a particularly heartfelt monolog that really gets to me. I was wondering how your parents took your leaving the successful legal career with all the money behind. Does your husband still work a regular job to keep your lifestyle? We do, after all still have to pay bills, put food on the table, and live. That cost money. Love your voice, it makes me feel good. Have a Magical Day.

Thanks a lot for tuning in. My dad took it particularly hard. He didn't speak to me for about 2 years when he first realised that i wasn't going back to my legal career. But they've come around now that they see how happy I am. Neither my hubs nor I are working anymore. Our current simple lifestyle is sustained by the small amount of passive income we are making out of our investments - rentals mainly.

@@JeanVoronkova You & your husband are smart to realize at such a young age what's important to you. At 69 I want to stop working but just can't afford to. Love your talks 🦜
