HowToGetFree.com is my site - designed to document and share my personal quest for financial freedom.

 

In January 2001, my wife introduced me to the book Rich Dad, Poor Dad. I already had my MBA at this point in my life, a great job consulting to some of the largest companies in the world and a career path, I thought, that would take me a lifetime to out grow.  Rich Dad Poor Dad opened my eyes!  With the exception of dreaming of winning the lottery, I had never thought about obtaining financial freedom on my own.

 

I define financial freedom as having enough passive income from businesses or assets so I do not have to work.   Let me be clear:  It’s not that I don’t want to work, my goal is to not HAVE to work.  I now have the dream of working on only the projects I want to work on for the profits I wish to achieve. 

 

Since being inspired by the Rich Dad Poor Dad book, I’ve:

  1. - Read many new books

  2. - Taken a lot of risk

  3. - Made some really big mistakes (LEARNINGS)

  4. - Studied many different people

  5. - Expanded my thinking

  6. - Been inspired over and over to get financially free

 

Over the last 9 years, I’ve struggled with finding other people who are also on the journey towards financial freedom. 

 

So, I’ve decided put myself and my experiences out to the world via this site.  I hope to find others who are also looking to become financially free and maybe some of my experiences and education will help others on their journey.

 

This site is a work in progress.  For now, it’s a journal of my experiences so far, with a huge focus on my personal development.  As this site grows, I hope it will expand to be a collaborative portal between myself and others who are on the same path.

 

My objectives for this site are:

  1. 1) be as open and honest with my journey as possible

  2. 2) document my learnings and lessons along the way

  3. 3) provide a real life example of how financial freedom is obtained by one man

 

Please email me or respond to my blog postings and let me know how I can provide more value to you on your journey.
