Rob Perkins turned down a $17,500 freelance gig because he had enough saved. He defines real wealth not as money but as the ability to say no to work you don't want. For freelancers living paycheck to paycheck, that choice feels impossible.

A few years ago, I was offered a job that would have paid me $17,500, but I turned it down. Earlier in my career, I would have taken it because when your freelance film crew income is unpredictable, turning down $17,500, that can be irresponsible. This time was different. I had enough money set aside so that I didn't need that job. That was one of the first times that I really realized what wealth meant to me. It was being able to say, nah, I'm good.
