Has Your Life Been Conscripted by an Economic Religion? Learn How to Free Yourself and Your Life Through the Power of Fastlane Entrepreneurship By all appearances, Jeff and Samantha Trotman are living the American Dream. But behind the white picket fence, they endure an American Nightmare. With little time for each other, a pile of debt, and Ferrari taste on a Ford budget, the ruse of affluence is killing them. Two respectable jobs and a lovely suburban house paint a pretty picture, but behind the ink is a broken marriage rife with meaningless work and dead dreams. And now, with an unplanned pregnancy, they're facing a mid-life crisis twenty years early. With little time and looming bankruptcy, the Trotmans are forced to face the red-pill truth they long denied: They were alive, but they weren't living. Determined to resurrect their life and their marriage, the Trotmans plot a rat-race escape-only to find themselves more thickly in it. As tensions rise and hope fades, follow along step-by-step as the Trotmans pivot to a new strategy and a new career: starting a business as entrepreneurs. While they navigate their journey, you'll learn 120 wealth-building strategies and principles that your mainstream financial guru won't dare reveal-actionable concepts that will help you profit your way into the Unscripted 1%, an emerging economic class of entrepreneurs who enjoy a lifetime of freedom emancipated from miserly living and Wall Street's "save, pray, and wait" paradigm.

Here is just a little of what you will learn: The Bad Math Principle: Why most people will never escape the rat-race, much less earn financial freedom. The 1/5/10 Strategy: How this one simple exercise will unearth your ultimate dream life while establishing a decision framework for its reality. The Honeypot Principle: Why the financial media's "invest a $100/mo for 40 years in indexed-funds" narrative is part of the same rat-race scheme, just a different side of the same rigged coin. The Dual Change Strategy: The two divergent sides of change and how it can make you a fortune. The Value Skew Strategy: How to find literally 1000s of business ideas and why you never need to "disrupt" or invent anything new or novel. The Millionaire Payday Strategy: How to spot opportunities to hire yourself and earn an instant millionaire-making income.

Don't let the rat-race and its co-conspirators proclaim your life as non-essential. Don't let the rat-race entice you to save your life away for the promise of an elderly retirement.

For many people, financial freedom is a major goal. If they no longer needed to work for money, so much would be possible. For people who have to go to work every day that seems like paradise. But how do people actually live once they have reached the goal? Gisela Enders interviewed people mostly from Germany and Europe who are already financially free. She met very interesting people. Some who do not work at all anymore and others who spend every day working on their own projects out of sheer passion. Some who make their living from stocks and others who live from rental income. And others who live abroad and need very little money to live on. People who want to enjoy spending time with their kids and others who put all their passion into their own projects. Most of the people interviewed live frugally and from the outside, the only thing different about them is that they are rich in time. What would your own ideal life be like? A life that you planned yourself rather than one planned for you. You can put that plan into practice step by step. The ideas in this book will inspire you to consider a life beyond the rat race.

“A refreshing and rigorous analysis of financial self-help that gets to the heart of identity formation in neoliberalism . . . sociology at its best.” —Peter Miller, London School of Economics In this era where dollar value signals moral worth, Daniel Fridman paints a vivid portrait of Americans and Argentinians seeking to transform themselves into people worthy of millions. Following groups who practice the advice from financial success bestsellers, Fridman illustrates how the neoliberal emphasis on responsibility, individualism, and entrepreneurship binds people together with the ropes of aspiration. Freedom from Work delves into a world of financial self-help in which books, seminars, and board games reject “get rich quick” formulas and instead suggest to participants that there is something fundamentally wrong with who they are, and that they must struggle to correct it. Fridman analyzes three groups who exercise principles from Rich Dad, Poor Dad by playing the board game Cashflow and investing in cash-generating assets with the goal of leaving the rat race of employment. Fridman shows that the global economic transformations of the last few decades have been accompanied by popular resources that transform the people trying to survive—and even thrive. “A gifted observer, Fridman’s ethnographic account uncovers a unique blend of morality and economics in self-help groups pursuing their dream of financial freedom. This book contributes to economic and cultural sociology but will also fascinate general readers.” —Viviana A. Zelizer, Lloyd Cotsen ’50 Professor of Sociology, Princeton University “A wonderful portrait of how financial technologies of the self work in modern culture.” —Marion Fourcade, University of California, Berkeley

Discover the (surprising) secret to lifelong financial freedom with real estate investing. Real estate has always been a powerful tool for investing, and many people believe that a single-family home investment strategy will help them achieve their goals. However, the true path to financial freedom using real estate is found in apartment buildings. Real estate investing expert and author Michael Blank learned that once investors did their first deal, the curious "Law of the First Deal" led to the second and third deals in rapid succession. Most were able to quit their jobs within 3-5 years of getting started. Of course, when most people hear "apartment buildings" they immediately assume they need years of investing experience and money saved up to be able get into the game. This simply isn't true. Michael has compiled the results of his research into his new book, Financial Freedom with Real Estate Investing: The Blueprint to Quitting Your Job with Real Estate - Even without Experience or Cash. He's outlined the "Financial Freedom Blueprint" that guides you through your first multifamily deal, even if you have no prior experience or your own cash.
