Finally, a way to stop worrying about money and get back to being awesome in your life

Does that sound great? Read on

 

Dear Friend,

I know what it’s like to struggle with your money.

 

    • You run every time the mail comes because it might be a bill!
    • You worry about saving enough.
    • You think you have your money shit under control and then something unexpected comes up.
    • You hate managing your money.
    • You wish money would just go away.
    • Money is a constant source of arguments in your relationships.
    • It doesn’t matter how hard you work, you never seem to have enough.
    • You feel like you can’t live the life you want because you’re limited by money.
    • You have mountains of debt and you feel like it’s a huge boulder chasing after you like Indiana Jones

 

The good news is that you don’t have to go crazy to manage your money.

 

There are simple, effective ways of managing your money that don’t add any overhead. You might have even heard the information before! But, as we all know, information isn’t everything. If information was all anyone needed, we would all be perfect athletes with 10% body fat (diet and exercise, am I right?), perfect relationships and a fantastic, purpose driven work. Yeah right. The key is our attitudes about the world that stop us from accomplishing what we want to accomplish. In fact, some of those attitudes might be popping up right now as you read this! “There is no way it’s easy” you might think. Or “I will never be rich enough to stop worrying about money, what is this guy crazy?” There are a number of things, some of which you are thinking right now, that are preventing you from having the financial life of your dreams.

 

I’m right there with you. Let me tell you my story.

 

7 years ago I was just your normal suburban average working geek with a World of Warcraft habit. I had nothing figured out; I didn’t know what I wanted to do with my life, I didn’t consider myself “creative” and I wished I had more friends. Then I started going to Burning Man and my life was never the same. I discovered how to really be myself. I built a 7 foot four legged stilt lion costume. I helped build massive sound stages. I discovered my tribe. I discovered the joys of mesh shirts and booty shorts. I thought I had it all figured out.

That lasted a few years and then I had a significant crisis. I had written a check for $2000, believing I had $6000 in the bank. A few days later, I double checked my balance and felt my heart stop because I actually had $100 in my account. After a mad scramble to borrow some money from some friends I managed to get it figured out but then I realized that there was an area of my life I had significantly ignored.

 

I had to get my money shit handled, and fast.

 

So I did what I thought everyone else already knew how to do. I started learning how to manage my personal finances. I found tools and books that would help. I create a basic foundation that fundamentally changed how I view the world because I thought I had my shit handled.

Then I hit a wall. That wall was my belief that “I don’t have enough money, I need to be cheap.” I don’t remember exactly where I got it from, but since I can’t remember it’s probably someone from my childhood telling me “Brian, you can’t have that because we can’t afford it.” Even though it was long ago, it stuck with me and I didn’t even know it was a fundamental belief. I also had another fundamental belief of “I can afford this; I don’t have to pay attention to my finances.” As you can imagine, having both of these at the same time meant getting my shit together was nearly impossible. Realizing that I held these two fundamental beliefs significantly transformed how I viewed my money. I realized that in order to truly master my finances, I needed to understand my story of money.

Then, in January 2012, something clicked. I realized that my views on our emotional relationships to money, as well as my knowledge of personal finance, meant that I had something significant to offer the world. I developed a system to take people on the same journey that I had been on; one of personal transformation and mastering their personal finances. I wish I would have had this system when I started, it would have shaved YEARS off of my Learning Curve!

I call this system

 

STOP BEING SCARED AND START BEING AWESOME

 

    • Discover the #1 trick to knowing where your spending your money, at all times, with no overhead
    • Build a system of spending your money that is free of guilt (and save as much as you want!)
    • Learn how your values secretly conspire to keep you poor and unhappy
    • Effortlessly shave up to 30% out of your current spending
    • Discover for yourself what it would be like to live your dream life, and figure out the steps to get there!

 

To get you started, here’s a free tip on how to build a guilt free spending system:

 

    • Find your critical, money based values
    • Outline a way to divide your money based on those values, before you even look at where you’re spending your money!
    • Once you have your values, reality hits fantasy and you look at where you’re actually spending your money. What needs to change? (Note: this is the part where you feel a lot of guilt for having spent money unconsciously. Don’t worry, guilt is actually fine. Guilt is just showing you that you have found your values! Let the past be the past and choose for yourself a new way moving forward!)

FREE BONUS

 

As a free bonus, I’ll show you how to be a power user of my favorite, popular money tracking tools. You probably have already heard of them (maybe even from me, if you have ever met me you’ll know that I don’t shut up about it) but you won’t know the tricks that I know.

 

BUT BRIAN, I DON’T NEED HELP WITH MY MONEY EXCEPT TO BE ABLE TO AFFORD BURNING MAN TICKETS. DO YOU HAVE ONE I CAN BUY FOR THIS YEAR?

 

Sorry, I barely got mine this year :( Contact me though and if I hear of anything I will let you know.

 

OK, YOU GOT MY ATTENTION. BUT, WHAT DO YOU OFFER THAT’S DIFFERENT THAN THE OTHER 20 PERSONAL FINANCE BOOKS THAT I ALREADY OWN AND LOVE?

That’s a great question! The number one thing that you get when you work with me is my undivided attention and personal support. I don’t give up on you when your doubts show up and you give up for the hundredth time trying to figure something out. I’m the expert, lean on me when you have questions. Also, we have regular catch up calls so that you never fall behind in the things you set out to do. I’ll be like your mom, constantly calling to see how you are doing. Hopefully you actually pick up the phone when I call (just kidding mom).

 

COOL. I’M INTERESTED. WHAT HAPPENS WHEN I SIGN UP THOUGH AND DON’T LIKE IT?

I’m a relaxed guy and I am 100% committed to everyone getting their money shit handled. If at the end of the first few sessions you feel like you don’t have a clear path to figuring it out, I’ll give you 100% of your money back.

YES BRIAN, I’M READY TO MAKE THE CHANGE
