Would you escape one prison, only to find yourself jumping into a different prison?

One day, I stumbled upon this discussion between one of our associate adviser and a client adviser. They were discussing how much a lot of people would yearn to escape wage slavery by being financially independent.

However, in financial independence, you would be imprisoned by the anxiety in wondering how much you could spend, so that your money can last long enough before you passed away.

If you think deep enough, that conclusion is not too wrong. The prison, in this case, is to have something dear held captive against your will. If you are an office worker, you are forced to work for a paycheck which would pay for what your family needs. In financial independence, your stability will be taken away from you.
