Walking the road to financial freedom as a teacher My personal road to financial freedom started with Dave Ramsey about 10 years ago. You either love Dave or you don’t, but I was fascinated by him. Heck, I still am. I think he is a genius businessman and I’ve learned a lot about financial freedom tips through his programs for my personal and professional life. I’ve done his envelope system and my business operates through his EntreLeadership model. In short, I still believe so much in his steps for financial freedom, but here’s the catch – for some reasons most teachers don’t believe they can achieve the same financial success. What’s this all about?  How to build financial freedom: the road less traveled Do you live paycheck to paycheck? Do you feel like you barely make ends meet? Are you so wrapped up in the day-to-day that you don’t have the time to focus on lifting the burden of debt off of your shoulders? If you relate to any of the above, friend, let me tell you: I have sooooooooooooooooo been there, too. And it wasn’t even that long ago. But the crazy thing about financial freedom is – it only takes one small step to make you breathe a little easier. It wasn’t that long ago that I was in a similar place, but now I want for nothing. That’s why on today’s show, if you’re feeling stuck on your road to financial freedom, I’ve got some insights for you on how to go from overworked, underpaid and debt-filled teacher, to financially free and focused on success as a CEO Teacher.
