If you want to live the life of your dreams you need to replace blind faith with wisdom and right action. When you stop making the taxman, the gas station, the utility, the landlord, the debt collector, the bond salesman, the insurance company and more rich at your expense, you can save thousands of dollars each year. (This is a very different strategy than just cutting out cafe lattes.) Those savings can go to things you love, like fun and bucket list vacations, while also providing far better for your future.
