The Wealthy English Teacher: Teach, Travel, and Secure Your Financial Future

Publisher Marketing: This book is for anyone looking to secure their financial future and more specifically, teachers living and working overseas, or those finishing university and considering teaching abroad as a career. Freedom from worrying about money is an achievable goal for just about anyone by following some simple steps. However, this journey is not for the faint of heart. It will require a good dose of dedication, sacrifice and frugal living especially in the early years and you will have to live in a way that is different from those around you. It is however, well worth it when you are not a slave to debt because you will have so many more choices: working, or not; taking a job not based entirely on salary; semi-retiring to some beautiful place in your forties or fifties; taking time off of work to travel or volunteer. All these things really are possible, even for someone who chooses to teach abroad for their career. This book will cover the ten steps to financial freedom including: 1. Choosing a job wisely (with advice most specifically tailored to ESL Teachers) 2. Building a small emergency fund 3. Living frugally and paying off debts 4. Advancing your career 5. Building a full emergency fund 6. Saving your first $10,000 to invest 7. Investing in the financial markets and enjoying life 8. Building passive income streams 9. Planning for the future 10. Enjoying financial freedom
