About this ebook
Are you entering the Christmas season in debt? Do you want to enjoy Christmas in a debt-free, cash-flow-heavy environment?
You can have it all and then some, but it comes at the cost of financial discipline. First, you must determine your emotional connection to money and spending.
Next, you must live on a budget and pay down all your debt. Saving and planning are the next steps.
Finally, creating passive income from assets will give you a positive cash flow to spend on Christmas. My wife and I went from debt to dividends in four years. If we can, you can as well. Good Luck!

01 Wiping the Debt of Christmas Past
Christmas is when we overindulge, over-travel, and, worst of all, overspend. However, racking up credit card debt during the holidays can leave us in a challenging situation for years.
We live in a consumer-focused nation that thrives on spending in the economy. I love the holidays as much as everyone else, but we have to be intentional (smart) about how much we spend.
Today, I want to discuss a better way to shop during the holidays. Ultimately, we want to spend money from free cash flow, not credit cards or savings.
Real Estate is a Mindset (Beginner)
Are you a spender or a saver? Luckily, I just wrote an article titled "Are You a Spender or a Saver?" Before making a change, you will need to understand your emotional connection to money.
The book "Effortless Money does an excellent job of directing you toward a better relationship with money. Also,
Know Yourself, Know Your Money" will help you draw conclusions about your spending.
The holidays are when companies spend millions of dollars to hit your emotional spending side. You must prepare yourself for the onslaught of adverts, commercials, and social media bombardments.
