Scared Money Dont Make Money

You want to make more money....

That means you need to learn how to generate traffic to a service or product. Its really that simple of an equation. Now unfortunately its a dense equation that we try and peel back as we dive into this episode. 

Whether you are selling a local service, free lance services, or an online product you have to learn how to master the art of getting traffic to you! 

Here is episode one of many more to come about how to make more money. Full Blog article and description coming soon. 

The Podcast Episode Last week was a great story of a guy who had a dream, built a business and sold it to Microsoft for 5 million dollars. He then invested wisely and hasn't worked a day since. But today is not about him...Today is about how a teacher can do it too. 

You see... I share that story of Jeremy first because we all think financial freedom is for those that make it big, those that sell the company, those that inherit, and those that get lucky. 

BUT

Contrary to popular belief there is a small window frame where the scrappy ones make it, they are disciplined, they are relentless, they fail more times than they succeed, they are humble, they learn from their mistakes, and most importantly they NEVER GIVE UP.

And tomorrows episode is about a young couple who is exactly the things above. 

They are two teachers in the midwest... No 5 million dollar sale, no large inheritance,  and have a newborn in the home.

But even with all that 2020 was Davids last year as a teacher. 3 years ago he had a dream of helping people (teachers in specific) with their personal finances. He knew there was no way he could do both at the same time so he and the wife had a conversation of what it would need to look like to live off one teachers salary so he could pursue his dreams.

The Next 3 years was spent learning how to budget...save... invest... and sharpen their money skills. Exactly 3 years later he was able to walk away from teaching to pursue his dream with no promised income insight.

I LOVE THIS STORY. 

Because this is what Money gives you. It gives you power, freedom, and a choice. When you stop thinking about WHAT  money can get you and instead think of where it can take you... the motivation will change forever. 

This Story...unfortunately gives you NO EXCUSES. Jeremys story allows you to justify him not working. Davids Story is a true middle class story that is not easily obtained. 

I hope you listen to the episode and his story inspires you to take control of your finances and give yourself the freedom and power you deserve.

P.S. We work way to hard in life just to spend it all on shitty things made in china.

Jeremy was able to retire at 36 after selling his company for 5 million dollars. 99% percent of people would sky rocket their expenses, live a lavish lifestyle and go on to work the rest of their life. Jeremy took a different approach, He invested almost all of the money from his sale and now lives of the dividends. This allows him literally to do whatever he wants, when he wants. The best part about it?  He actually has more money know then he did when he sold.  Want to know why? His money is working for him not against him. Taken a listen if you want to here all his secrets.

Everything we wish we knew Five years ago! If I could grab every young professional and shake them I would. No one ever sat down with us and told us these things, giving us a very late start to the game. I hope everyone takes the twenty minutes and figures out why Maxing out your IRA, HSA are so important early on in life. We would be thousands and thousands of dollars ahead if we would of known these things in our early 20s. Take advantage of this and take action now!

In this episode we answer another big financial question that many young professionals ask. Should I share finances with my spouse? We dive into some big questions like 

• When should we start sharing finances? 
• What if I have a ton of debt?
• What if my partner makes way more money than I do? 
• Where do we even start sharing money?
• Are there tax benefits to sharing money?

Talking about money is a big taboo. Opening up to friends and family about personal finances can feel awkward and for many of us we were told this in inappropriate by parents or teachers, BUT what if thats part of our financial problem? What if we could learn from others in our phase of life, and those who have already been in this season. What if listening and learning to others investments could help our own? Maybe talking with key people in our lives could help us make better budgeting decisions, better debt pay off plans, and spend more responsibly?
