What does the “American Dream” mean to you? Or if you live in Canada like me, the “Canadian Dream”? Personally, I think it’s something only you can define for yourself, but for me it means living in a country that gives you access, freedom, opportunity, a voice, and the potential to reach heights you never thought possible when it comes to your career, finances, and life in general.
In this podcast episode with Mark Matson, author of Experiencing The American Dream: How to Invest Your Time, Energy, and Money to Create an Extraordinary Life, we discuss this topic in-depth including how the “Dream” is still alive despite what some people may think, how money itself can’t make you happy (so don’t lose sight of what matters), how to create your own purpose, and how to actually realize your the “Dream” by investing strategically for the future.
