Spicy Dividends for a Bland Life: Make More Money Doing Less Work: Financial Freedom, #211

About this ebook
I remember being stuck in the rat race as an employee. No matter how much my cost-of-living raises I received, they could never keep up with my lifestyle.
I didn't know how to "break the cycle" and finally get ahead of my finances. However, in June 2019, I discovered the words "passive income" and "dividends." These words forever changed my life.
Now, I am living the good life. I earn $1,500/month in dividends and can use them any way I like.
I use my dividends to be generous to my family and friends. I can enjoy going to the movies or traveling the world.
If you want to add some zest to your life as an employee, give dividends a chance. You can make more money by doing less work; It just takes a change in mindset. Good Luck!

01 Spicy Dividends for a Bland Life
I remember my life as an employee. The military paid me twice a month for over 24 years. They used to call it three hots and a cot.
For the first 20 years, my only income derived from those two monthly paychecks. They increased yearly, but my expenses increased more than my pay raises.
Soon, the paychecks and the pay raises weren’t enough to "get me ahead" of my expenses. I was officially in the rat race.

I remember thinking at some point in early 2019 that I couldn’t even take my family to Applebees without using a credit card. I love Applebee’s, by the way.
Then, I found dividends. My life was pretty bland because I couldn’t afford to spice it up. I had a wife and two kids to support and a house to maintain.
In June 2019, my wife and I visited her family in Didem, Turkey. Little did I know that this trip would change my life forever.
My wife and I saved for over a year to afford our trip to Turkey. Once there, I began to ask questions about how we could afford to live here permanently.
