Wake Up To Freedom Podcast: Freedom Lifestyle / Freedom Business / Quit your job / Break out the 9 to 5

Rolling on with Episode 11 of Daniel Carbonel’s Wake Up to Freedom Podcast introduces us to Paul Kortman. Paul is a digital nomad and even though he is married with four kids he is able to support his family on what otherwise be a very expensive lifestyle that only millionaires could afford. Or maybe Paul is a millionaire himself! Being a digital nomad was never Paul’s dream, but he was able to find financial freedom online and that’s how it all started. Find out more from this episode on how Paul was able to raise his family while traveling across continents on a very efficient budget plan. Who is Paul Kortman? Paul Kortman is the owner and operator of Home Along The Way.com. This website which includes a blog, family travel blog, books, podcast and other interesting things showcases his success by creating financial freedom online. They are a family of 6 who have chosen to be location-independent and in 2014 they’ve decided to sell everything they had and started traveling all over the world! They have been to Mexico, Thailand, Indonesia, Philippines, San Francisco, USA, South Africa, Portugal, Bulgaria and Malaysia; and they don’t intend to stop any time soon. Paul is easily making over half a million dollars a year just by our estimates, but he claims that most of the places he and his family have been to only cost them $1,000 a month to live in. That already includes rent, airplane tickets, rented vehicles, food and other expenses – which is crazy considering the inflation and high costs of living in almost every place you go. But Paul was able to do it through his digital marketing chops and amazing wits. Why Did He Decide to Become a Digital Nomad? Paul didn’t actually plan to become a digital nomad and he merely called his wife’s bluff about the whole location-independent thing after listing to a podcast called, “Tropical MBA.” They simply decided one day that they were going to travel the world and live a freedom lifestyle business while maximizing their family time together and never miss out on time with their kids again. They were able to do this by creating financial freedom online and the returns from their investments (time and effort) were very positive and he and his wife are so pleased with it. Having successfully established himself as a premier digital marketer with his own digital marketing agency, Paul, being a normal human being that he is, wanted what other successful people had. Things like expensive clothes, gold watches, pieces of jewelry and other accessories, exotic cars and big houses that he thought would make him and his family happy. However, pondering on that idea he realized that it was contrary to what they all wanted as a family – time freedom. Having created his freedom business now and finding the gold at the end of the rainbow which is financial freedom online, he doesn’t need all those material wealth anymore even though he could afford to buy them. No, the goal was to spend time together, love each other, and enjoy life to the fullest. What Does He Want You to Do with Your Life? Often digital marketers are among the kindest people on Earth that you’ll ever meet and it’s not because they make lots of money and enjoy a freedom lifestyle business. But rather it’s because they see the potential in every person they meet and they know exactly how to make any person a successful entrepreneur and create their own financial freedom online. So if you ask what Paul wants you to do with your life? Well, he would want you to become as successful and as happy as he is. Once you receive so many blessings, selfishness will not be found in you and all you want to do is to share all these blessings to every soul you touch.
