Financial Freedom can affect our happiness
Many people think that if they attain financial freedom, that can be the ultimate, and they might have achieved everything in this world. But there is also a life after financial freedom which most of people don't think through. Many philosophers in the world have said that life is not about the destination, but it is about the journey. Similarly, even financial freedom might be a destination, but the financial journey is also important. There are a few consequences that we should keep in mind.
Isolation from the world
After attaining financial freedom, we might end up isolated from the world. There will be a feeling that we may not be able to go normal with everyone. Sometimes people isolate themselves from the rest of the world. It is not about after the attainment but seeking that itself can isolate us from the rest of the world. The whole world will be enjoying, but we may not join them but instead focus on what we have to be doing.
High Expectation
We expect everyone around us to be in line with our thoughts. Not everyone have the thought to be financially free. Many people lead a simple life with a simple purpose. Financial freedom is something that can be suitable for some people and not everyone can achieve that. In that process, some people lose the current happiness they have.
No purpose after achievement
After achieving financial freedom, it becomes boring for some people as there is nothing higher than that. People seek for higher purpose, and in the process, they exhaust themselves and after attaining financial freedom, they feel there is nothing left and end up with frustration. Some people, luckily, even elevate themselves spiritually after that.
Relationships can be affected
Our partner doesn't need to also have the same thought process. Sometimes we might be very busy and fail to spend enough time with our partner. This can affect the relationship to a greater extent. Some couples share the same thought process, and they can manage both their life as well as the financial freedom journey.
Work-life balance disturbed
If we are chasing our dreams towards financial freedom, we should also keep in mind that our health is also very important. In the process, we shouldn't lose our work-life balance and end up getting stressed out or exhausted.
Not guaranteed
Many people try to attain financial freedom, but it is not a guarantee that everyone ends up achieving it. Though we should have full confidence in what we are doing, we shouldn't exhaust ourselves too much and learn to let go if it is not our cup of tea. This way we can at least focus on the regular happiness that we should be having in our life, instead of taking too much of stress.

Right, only very very few people get financial freedom, but if you achieve it, it's freedom from slavery work world... I think you will always find something do it
This is so true. Financial freedom sounds perfect, but it can bring its own problems if we lose balance. I like how you reminded us to enjoy the simple joys of life, not just focus on money.

It is absolutely true that if we are free and are doing our own business and living our own life in our own country, then it is the happiest thing for us, but that is not happening. We are currently having to pay taxes on everything and the inflation rate is increasing day by day.
I think that I stil don't have the mental or intelectualy ability to actually thinking of the financial freedom, and how it feels like. Surelky there are a lot of good things, but there are also some bad aura to it as well.
Lets just see how those American Billionaire aer doing now, Bill Gates, Bazos, or Musk, once they gain the financial freedom, shouldn't they be happy right? But I think they still have tons of issue to handle. Eventhough if they decided to just retire, and enjoy life, their money will surely be enough until they die.
totally feel the point about how the chase can cool a home down. your right that partners may not share the same drive. I’ve found the small shared routines can keep things steady, even something simple like a weekly co#ffee walk, because money doesn’t hug you back. When the bond is tended, the goals feel lighter and the path feels kinder.
agar apke uppar koi loan nahi hai to wo he sabse bada Financial Freedom hai. If you will retire early then you mayb get bore after a certain time, if you are not doing anything after quitting the job/ profession.
Well I will say it depends on the perspective we see and look at financial freedom. For me financial freedom is necessary to have happiness
