What Exactly is The Studenomics Journey? What Will You Get Out of Being a Member? Posted: 28 May 2013 03:00 AM PDT What’s so damn unique about Studenomics? What’s the unique selling proposition here? What’s my elevator pitch? For all of you marketing nuts out there, let’s start off by answer these questions. What’s the usp of Studenomics?
I don’t want you guys to be barely getting by and barely able to afford a night out on the town. I want you to thrive. Own the night. Save a lot of money. See what the world has to offer. What’s the elevator pitch for Studenomics?
Okay cool. Now with the buzzwords out of the way, let’s dig a little deeper. What’s our journey all about? Let’s look at this wild ride and what you should expect/demand out of being a loyal reader and member of our crew. Be debt-free by 30.
Did I ever tell you that I hate debt? I loathe debt. I hate to see good people in debt. I hate debt. It’s horrible. You have to spend today’s money on yesterday’s expenses. I can’t stand that concept. The things that you own end up owning you and there’s no way around this. I want us to all be debt free by the time that we hit 30. This refers to student loan debt and credit card debt. I know that some of us will have mortgages or business debt. Not to use the term “good debt” — but that’s more acceptable than owing money on your credit card. If you join now, you’ll be out of debt by 30. Guaranteed. Do work that you enjoy (making sweet money).Everyone throws around catchphrases like YOLO. That’s great. It’s time to apply them to more than just drinking. I want us all to be making good money. This can be through a day job, side business, freelancing, or combination of all of these. I also want us all to do work that we enjoy. None of this hating work and wanting to escape every chance that we get. Life is too damn precious to spend 40 hours a week doing something that we hate. Now I must admit that I’m not a fan of selling dreams and offering the world. We won’t quit our jobs to follow our passions. However, we have and will continue to look at ways to make money doing work that we enjoy. We will be very practical with how we approach this. [Start an online business in the next 5 minutes.] Create a simple system for managing money.Managing money doesn’t have to be stressful, time-consuming or boring. In fact, it should be pretty damn easy! I don’t want you guys to stress about managing your money. That’s boring. There’s more to life than always thinking about money. I shared how I saved $25k by 25 with you guys before. It’s not that difficult at all. If I can do it, anyone can. Trust me. The goal of Studenomics is to create a simple system for managing money. We won’t let our money control us. [The 3-step formula to saving huge money.] Grab life by the balls.
We don’t feel sorry for ourselves around here. Life’s too amazing to be wasted away. There’s no sense in even wasting one second on feeling sorry for ourselves or being pissed off at the world. Screw that. At this point I need to share my favorite quote from Fight Club:
We need to stop worrying about crap and start thinking about getting the most out of life/giving back as much as possible. Time for some quick questions that you guys have asked!This is sort of like a FAQ, but cooler… What are the main topics on here? The answer isn’t everything because that’s not true. My goal is to making boring and non-boring topics in the finance community as fun and as simple as possible. We will look at travel. We’ll talk about picking up girls. We will look at buying rental properties. There are no limits. We even talk about retirement and retiring early once in a rare while. I’m not handicapped by one specific niche. I can write about buying a rental property one day and then talk about planning a trip the next week. Why? Well, because I can. Also, because you guys demand to have these topics covered. Is this site for students? Not at all. This is for anyone that’s a student of anything. We’re all students of something. What’s the target demographic? 18 up until the late-20s. Realistically, it’s mostly dudes. There are some cool chicks that stop by. Do I have to follow my passions? Not at all. Do whatever you want as long as you’re not miserable and here to be a pain. Can debt be used as leverage? Absolutely. Just not when you owe thousands on your credit card for jeans. What’s next? I’m going to keep on experimenting with new ideas and sharing the results here. We will be launching an exclusive course. You can save your seat right now (no strings attached). How can I help you? What would you like to see covered here? What would make this journey better for you as a member? Oh and sign up below for my exclusive mailing list. How can you help me? Hey buddy, I hope you didn’t think you were getting off the hook.
