path than your fellow classmates."
Every year, more and more graduates are leaving school unprepared to create the life of wealth, abundance and freedom that they’re searching for.
Way too many graduates and young people today are living paycheck to paycheck. They owe hundreds, if not thousands of dollars in credit card debt. They’re still paying off student loans, and have very little time to spend with their families, let alone free time for themselves.
Young adults go off to college or university for at least 3 to 4 years, spend tens of thousands of dollars on tuition and books, and tens of thousands more on rent and living expenses during their post secondary years.
The average student debt carried today is in excess of $20,000. For medical students, the amount can be from $80,000 to over $100,000! Debt that will take years to pay off. But before it is paid off, more debt in the form of car loans and even mortgages will likely be added to the tally.
For graduates who choose to enter the corporate world, they would be lucky to find themselves earning $50,000 per year. To “keep up with inflation,” they may get incremental pay raises, but this is becoming rarer all the time. So, they have just spent the last 3 to 4 years at college or university, racked up somewhere between $20,000 to $100,000 dollars to hopefully get their dream job but will likely end up settling for something that will just pay the bills.
A college or university education is certainly highly valued and worthwhile, however, the jobs that one tends to get from a post-secondary education don’t likely create either time or financial freedom! And “job security” are two words that just don’t go together anymore.
"The only security you have is when you
are looking at the boss in the mirror."
The truth is, new graduates and young adults, and most middle-aged adults for that matter, usually never end up with their “dream job.” They end up in jobs they don’t particularly like and they spend the next several years of their life trying to like the job they have.
According to the Fresno California based research firm, Decipher, 72% of all adults would rather work for themselves than for another company and 67% think about quitting their jobs “regularly” or “constantly.”
Now fully entrenched in the “rat race” spinning their wheels on a treadmill to nowhere, these dissatisfied souls wake up day after day to a screaming alarm clock only to fight traffic, struggle to get to work on time, to do a job that they think about quitting regularly.
They’re overworked, underpaid and stressed to the max. Even their health takes a beating due to the pace they’re working at and the little time they have for proper eating habits. It’s no secret that obesity is on the rise due to eating at fast-food windows all the time.
Yet they still hope in vain that someday it will get better. The unfortunate and sad truth is it that for most, it doesn’t get any better. In fact it usually gets worse!
For everything that seems better, such as a raise because they’ve been working so hard, there is a price to pay. Usually the expectation to work even harder will come with that promotion!
To make matters worse, there is widespread corporate downsizing and manufacturing plant closures weekly, and people find themselves praying to keep these jobs they don’t even like!
They’ve spent years in school, thousands of dollars on education, had countless interviews, only to end up stressed and depressed in a dead-end job they cling to for financial security.
How ridiculous is this?
You may be looking for a way to have more money and more time freedom in your life. The brutal irony is that in order to make more money at a job, you have to sacrifice your time freedom.
So what happens is that you end up living to work, not working to live.
Even the people who earn a six-figure income often find that they are working longer hours, more weekends, and taking fewer vacations than ever before. All in the search of financial freedom.
They went after the higher paying jobs in hopes of more “time freedom,” but they found out the hard way that those jobs require more time, not less, and they end up even more stressed than if they were working some lower paying job that offered more free time.
