2023 is the year we choose freedom. That's our theme for the year (in case you missed the big words at the top). It starts with your finances. But that's just the jumping-off point. Our goal is to help you choose freedom in all areas of your life – including your mind, body, and spirit. 

When you hear the word freedom, you probably think about voting or the right to live your life the way you want to. That's political freedom. Or the right to go to church. That's religious freedom. We built our nation on these rights. And they're what makes America special. Freedom was a radical idea when we created the US. We proved that people prosper when they're free, and that's how the idea of democracy spread. 

Freedom often revolves around decisions. Who should I vote for? Where should I go to church? We're lucky to have the freedom to make those decisions because billions of people around the world still lack that privilege. 

But what about other types of decisions? Should I take my family on vacation? That's financial freedom. Should I go hiking today? That's health freedom. Should I skip work today to watch my son's baseball game? That's time freedom. 

Most Americans aren't truly free. Sure, we can vote. But we don't have as much control over our daily lives as we think. We become limited by discouragement and distraction. And in 2023, our goal is to empower you. 

War Against The Elites 

We spent much of 2022 exposing the elites. Washington DC. The Chinese Communist Party (CCP). Wall Street. Hollywood. The ultra-rich. Celebrities. You get the picture. If you want a refresher, check out our review article below: 

Main Street Insiders

2022 Review

2022 is ending. And it's time to reflect on year one of the Main Street Insiders podcast and newsletter. When we created Main Street Insiders roughly a year ago, our goal was to tell your story. The Main Street Story You're our hero—the Main Streeters of the world…

We'll continue to expose the elites. They've launched an invisible war to take our freedom. We'll keep you updated on what they're doing, but we don't want to complain the whole time. You've taken the red pill. You're part of this rebellion. There's so much you can do in your daily life to reject the elites and choose freedom. We want to make Main Street Insiders your rebel handbook. 

Choosing Freedom Through Personal Finance 

Most things cost money. So choosing freedom starts with your finances. But, to take care of your finances, you need to know what's happening in the bigger picture. It’s all related. That's why we talk about the economy so much. In the new year, we’ll also share tips and tricks experts use to pursue financial freedom. 

There's just one difference. Most of the experts are only focused on you and your freedom. It's self-centered. They say if you want to have an impact, make lots of money so you can give lots. But we believe you can have a massive impact along the way too. What if you spent less at companies that go against your values? What if you invested in companies that promote them instead? Now you're not just choosing freedom for yourself, you're choosing freedom for others too. 

Warriors Should be Strong in Mind, Body & Spirit 

Pursuing financial freedom is the foundation for pursuing freedom in other areas. Rebellion is a lifestyle. So we need to be strong in mind, body, and spirit. That's how we make the biggest impact. 

Think about it like this. The Navy SEALs are famous for taking on the toughest missions. But they prepare for years. They must be in great shape, be a good shot, and know their equipment. That's what makes them the best fighters in the world. 

We need our warriors to be well-trained. To help, this year we'll curate expert advice on exercise, dieting, mindfulness, and so much more. You'll discover that pursuing freedom is something you can do in little ways each and every day. It’s a journey, not a destination. The easiest way to rebel is to live a healthy, productive, and abundant life!

Imagine finding freedom from food addiction, stress, and social media. The elites encourage your dysfunction and addiction. It’s their business model. We can smash that business model to pieces and take our life back.  

Choose Freedom With Us

What would your life look like if you pursued your highest callings instead of being pulled into the impulse doom loop created by marketers? 

Would you spend more time in nature? Would you spend more time with the people you love? Would you spend more time working on a project that’s always inspired you but seemed too difficult to start?  

Moving in this way increasingly removes you from the grasp of the elites. It improves your life and the lives of those around you. All while undermining the plans of the enemy. It’s a win-win.

Bottom line: In 2023, let’s choose freedom first. We’ll start with personal finance because it’s something we all deal with. Then we’ll use that as a jumping-off point for choosing freedom in every other area of life.  

This is the way.

God bless and God bless America,

-Jeff and Luke
