Don't know about you, but I can't afford to retire. I'm not alone either. Only 5 - 15 percent of us (depending on which surveys you read) have either saved enough or will be provided with enough of a pension to sustain current lifestyles beyond the traditional retirement age of 65
It was 2020, when lockdown first hit, that I had time to think seriously about the future. I visited the UK Government website to look at my pension forecast, and as soon as I saw how little I'll receive at age 66 I knew there was a time-bomb ticking
There won't be enough money coming in to stop working. Or, let's say I do stop working, then I'll be living in poverty. Growing old while broke. No thank you!
The world we've inherited is a far different world from the one we were promised. We used to believe the companies we worked for would train us, promote us and give us fat pensions and a gold watch. Yet now even employer loyalty's gone
So, the overwhelming majority of us will need to remain in this unstable, insecure workplace just to maintain the lifestyle we're accustomed to. It may be necessary for as long as we're physically and mentally able
Surely in 2023 there are better ways of earning an income? Ways that don't require us to sell away so much of our time, or do soul crushing work? Or live in constant financial anxiety?
If we're obliged to remain engaged in the workplace, doesn't it make sense to work smart? To build assets that earn for us, that will make us financially self-reliant? Doesn't it make sense to do work that inspires, that we find meaningful, and rewarding? Doesn't it make sense to strive for freedom, and a higher quality experience of life?
Imagine... Six months from now, after you've been through basic study & training, you're starting to see income from your first online business. Within eighteen months you've surpassed your salary and are able to confidently quit your job. But the best part? You're now the owner of your time
Financial freedom (to me) means having more money coming in than you need, while having the freedom to spend time as you choose. You can achieve this in under two years. At least, that's my story, so, I reckon it could be your story too. This is why I can help, click this link to watch a comprehensive explainer video series and learn more…
