    You will never be able to truly advance past stage orange unless you are financially indepenent.

    Financial independence means:

    • Not a wage slave
    • Have at least enough cash to support you for the next 5 or so years without requiring you to work
    • Any cash that you do make is a by-product of living out your purpose, you never need to work for money

    Other thoughts

    • Realistically this is 0.01% of the population (at least those under 30)
    • Generally people try to move through orange too quickly, not grasping the significance of true financial freedom, and not playing the stage orange game

    I think that enough financial stability has potential to make people see the limitations of success and status. My dad has recently grown into green because of this actually.

    That said, I know many heavily green college kids who are far from financially independent and have not fully integrated orange. Of course, this often manifests in an unhealthy orange shadow and skewed, toxic world views, but it is possible nonetheless. I def think green is probably healthiest and most stable/immune to regression when it is built on a foundation of healthy orange.
