In a recent interview, someone asked Jensen, "Now that you're so rich, do you still have any dreams?"
Jensen replied:
I have been financially independent for 25 years. After becoming rich, I pay more attention to career and helping others.
I just want to focus 100% on taking care of my family and trying to build a good company.
Hearing this, don’t $NVIDIA(NVDA)$ shareholders feel even more reassured? Jensen has stayed focused on the same goal for over 20 years.
Now think about Elon Musk. He's already the richest person in the world, yet his days are still packed with concerns: rocket launches, opposing Trump’s policies, Mars colonization, Tesla's new product releases, and of course, his many children.
As an ordinary person, when I achieve financial freedom—when my savings fully cover my daily life, healthcare, and pleasures—I would choose to live in the most livable city. I’d do nothing all day but watch the clouds, play with my cat, and go for walks.
Some of my friends are planning to study abroad in a few years, pursuing degrees in subjects they truly love. And this seems to be a common dream among many Chinese people—the first thing they want to do after becoming wealthy is go back to school and learn.
So, what’s your dream?
If you achieved financial freedom, what’s the first thing you would do?

$NVIDIA(NVDA)$ $Tesla Motors(TSLA)$ $United Airlines(UAL)$ 🌎🌏🌍🧠📊 Financial freedom isn’t the destination; it’s the great unmasking
Financial freedom is often sold like a luxury endgame: the yacht, the beach, the early retirement. But for those who are truly wired to build, contribute, and evolve, it’s not an exit; it’s a reveal!
It’s the moment the mask of necessity falls away, exposing what you choose to pursue when the world no longer dictates your next move.
Jensen Huang builds empires through elegant precision. Elon Musk pursues multi-planetary disruption in full public view.
And I, through global trading and relentless intellectual engagement, see freedom not as rest, but as redefinition.
This isn’t about leaving the game; it’s about rewriting the terms of play.
🧭 Jensen Huang: capital without compromise
When asked if wealth altered his ambition, Huang responded with calm clarity:
“I’ve been financially independent for 25 years. After becoming rich, I pay more attention to career and helping others. I just want to focus 100% on taking care of my family and trying to build a good company.”
No theatre. No detours. Just an unflinching commitment to legacy.
And the numbers back it. $NVDA’s market cap surged past $3 trillion in 2024. Q3 2024 revenue alone came in at $35 billion, up 94% year-over-year. Yet Huang isn’t scaling back; he’s scaling deeper: personally funding AI research at Oregon State University and mentoring next-gen tech startups.
What he’s built is more than a chipmaker; it’s the infrastructure for a cognitive era. But what makes it remarkable is his consistency. Jensen Huang could have retired two decades ago. Instead, he honed a longer view.
That’s not just admirable; it’s tactical. Wealth hasn’t made him idle; it’s made him sharper. For $NVDA shareholders, that should resonate: this isn’t about chasing hype, it’s about building permanence.
🚀 Elon Musk: velocity as virtue
Elon Musk treats financial freedom as ignition.
His net worth stood at $421 billion as of December 2024 (Forbes), but his daily schedule reads like a geopolitical dispatch. SpaceX’s Starship entered orbital testing in early 2025, Tesla’s Cybercab was unveiled in October 2024, and his platform X has become a flashpoint for ideological warfare.
He doesn’t settle; he scales.
Tesla crossed a $1.3 trillion valuation at the end of 2024 while juggling SEC probes, global tariffs, and autonomy breakthroughs. At the same time, Musk is publicly battling legacy media, reshaping digital free speech, and reimagining internet infrastructure.
His freedom doesn’t breed silence; it breeds obligation on overdrive.
As Peter Drucker once wrote, “Wherever you see a successful business, someone once made a courageous decision.” Musk doesn’t stop at one. He makes them in sequence, on timelines no one else dares attempt.
But the volatility is real. Tesla can swing 10% on a single tweet. Mars timelines shift like jet streams. And critics accuse him of operating without a brake pedal. But brilliance rarely travels slowly.
Musk doesn’t wield capital for comfort; he wields it to move history.
✈️📈 My path: not escape, but expansion
For me, financial freedom wouldn’t mean detachment; it would mean radical alignment.
Trading has been a lifelong passion, sharpened not just in markets, but across real borders.
In my early twenties, I worked for a major stockbroker in Perth, Western Australia. That’s where I learned to read the tape, track flows, and understand how psychology collides with valuation. Years later, as a Control Operations Tower Supervisor for Continental Airlines, I had access to global first-class travel: every US state, the South Pacific, the vastness of Australia.
But I didn’t travel to relax; I travelled to learn. And what I found was that volatility exists in every timezone, and momentum and risk don’t clock out. That understanding now underpins how I trade, how I think, and how I contribute.
The dream? To chart earnings breakouts from a rooftop café in Lisbon. To decode macro catalysts while walking through ancient ruins. To remain active on Tiger Trading, engaging, analysing, elevating, whether I’m in a mountain village or a European capital.
Because clarity doesn’t need a home base; it needs purpose.
Zig Ziglar said it best:
“You can have everything in life you want, if you’ll just help enough other people get what they want.”
That’s not a motivational line; it’s a strategic edge. Insight multiplied by contribution creates durability, financially and otherwise.
🪞 Wealth as resonance, not retreat
Jensen refines. Elon disrupts. I choose presence.
Not noise. Not silence. Just calibrated precision, globally applied.
Tiger Trading doesn’t require a headquarters. What it demands is clear thought, sharpened analysis, and a trader’s ability to spot when the world pivots. Whether I’m publishing setups from a beach in Greece or tracking options flows in a café in Vienna, I’ll still be here, adding value, lifting others, and operating at full fidelity.
Because wealth isn’t the moment you check out; it’s the moment you check in, on your terms.
🧠 Final reflection: let others exit. I’ll expand.
Financial freedom isn’t a finish line; it’s a magnifier.
It exposes what you actually value. For Jensen, it’s depth. For Elon, it’s acceleration. For me, it’s the fusion of insight and impact.
The data confirms it: 68% of millionaires still work every day, not because they have to, but because purpose is habit-forming (Ramsey Solutions, 2024).
I don’t dream of disappearing into luxury. I dream of staying razor-sharp; traveling, trading, and teaching, while continuing to contribute to a global ecosystem that thrives on clarity.
Because the real edge isn’t ownership; it’s alignment. And when you’re free, the market knows exactly who you are.

@Tiger_SG
Purpose still matters to me, even without money worries. Like some friends planning to study abroad, I would love to go back to school and learn a subject I truly enjoy. Not for career reasons, but for personal growth and the joy of learning.
Seeing people like Jensen Huang and Elon Musk stay driven after becoming rich is inspiring. It reminds me that success is not just about wealth, but building something meaningful. I would seek a balance—enjoying peace while finding small ways to contribute, like mentoring or starting a community project.
@Tiger_SG @Tiger_comments @TigerStars
Being rich enough means choosing presence over productivity, depth over deadlines. It is letting dividends buy dinner with old friends. It is letting covered calls fund a fun filled holiday at Disney land with the kids. It is also allowing my ETFs to bankroll a life that is filled with laughter, slow coffees, passionate love and moments that breathe.
Money is Freedom doesn't mean luxury. It means liberation from fear, from scarcity and from trading my soul for survival.
Ultimately it means waking up and saying "This day is mine. Let me live it well."

Get onto the most expensive cruise and travel round the world for 274 night by Royal Caribbean..USD 100k [LOL][Happy][Smile][Chuckle]
After the trip, I will stay put in Singapore and start volunteering. Of course, donations to charity. As by then, I would have achieve my dream - travel round the world. Instead of 80 days, it will be 275 + 2 days flying. 🥰😍🤭😇
