The Unconstrained Podcast

For those that have never left their home land, they might have a hard time understanding the importance of the right to travel. But for those that are living under some totalitarian regime, have family in a place you cannot visit, or just feel that the walls are closing in on them and need to get out, this right is mission critical.

We kick off a series called ''The Unconstrained Bill of Rights'' in which I introduce a set of guidelines that those seeking to be unconstrained should follow. In this first installment, we talk about your right to financial freedom, but more so what that actually means - it may not be what you think it is.

Holy cow! 100 episodes already. That went by fast. But although this might be a milestone in our show, I'm not celebrating yet. Because there is so much to do. But in this episode, we'll cover how the show came about, what has happened since episode 1, the ongoing challenges we all face and how we must win this fight for our future.

First, let me say this. I hate the word retirement. I think our social mantra of working for 40 years has turned the act of choosing not to be employed to be misunderstood, and the term retirement has become the end game for those enslaved in employment. I dont see it that way, but I have to use a term that people seem to understand. Regardless of your age, the choice to leave the 9-5 world and become your own person again can be scary and threatening, so in this episode I want to explore the process of leaving the workforce safely.

I honestly believe that to be unconstrained requires you to succeed in three things - finance, health and purpose. Yet the hardest of these three things is to find purpose in your life. I cant tell you the answer to finding your purpose it is a deeply personal journey we must all face, but I can tell you the real costs of not finding it in this episode.

In this episode I am joined by my friend Mike from over at Rethinkingthedollar.com as we discuss how we both came to our conclusions about money, the economy, why things are the way they are and what can be done about it. Enjoy!

We have a lot of arguments in todays society. Arguments over politics, ideology, methodology, etc. But the one thing you cant argue is math. And when math tells you the truth of how to live a rich & unconstrained life, you cant ignore it. Better to understand and embrace it. In this episode I will tell you a very simple formula that will increase your power and reduce your stress by doing what the rich know stop spending money you dont have.
