Description
Over the past 4 years, I’ve been able to quit my soul-crushing job working for the Government of Canada, exponentially grow my net worth, and acquire over $3M worth of real estate. (It still blows my mind reading that to myself)
I mention this because none of it would ever have been possible if I didn’t first learn the basics of personal finance, business, and investing.
You seem, most people follow a very traditional financial path. Go to school, get a job, climb the corporate ladder, and hopefully be able to retire by 65…
In fact, that’s exactly the path I was on before taking massive action towards steering my life in a different direction to live life on my own terms and work for myself.
If you’re reading this, I’m guessing you’re also putting into question the traditional financial narrative that most people blindly fall into. And don’t get me wrong, there’s nothing wrong with working a job if you’re passionate about what you do.
But if you aspire to achieve any form of financial abundance, spend more time with your kids, travel more, or whatever else you may be seeking out, then there’s no getting around mastering your personal finances.
Considering the importance personal finance plays in our day-to-day lives, it’s crazy to me that we don’t spend more time learning the basics of the topic in school, or even in university for that matter…
That’s where this course comes into play, helping you get your personal finances on the right foot towards success. And that’s just it, personal finance is personal to you and you only. That’s why learning the necessary concepts and then reflecting on your own situation is the best course of action.
So, let me ask you a couple of questions... Do you know anything about your financial health? Your savings rate? Your credit score? Your trajectory towards retirement? If the answer is yes, then this course probably isn’t for you. Seriously, I don’t want you to waste your money on information you already know.
This course is aimed at individuals who are new to personal finance, investing, and strategies for managing their money. I’ve made the course as easy to consume and accessible as possible, so you don’t need to worry about being confused or overwhelmed.
I hope this course can be one of your first steps towards a more abundant future.
I’ll see you inside!
