For the longest time I have poo-pooed the idea of travel hacking.

For me, it meant you were supposed to go out and sign up for as many travel credit cards as possible. Then, you would try to spend as much as money on each credit card to “chase the rewards.”

I remember thinking: Wow! I can spend $40,000 on a credit card and score a free plane ticket - no thanks!

Then I met Travis.

Side note: I met Travis at a little dive bar in Philadelphia last summer through a mutual friend. When he first told me he was a travel hacker...well... I wasn’t overly impressed.

Until now!

You see, Travis didn’t get his first credit card until he was 28-years-old and to this day he WILL NOT carry a balance or pay a dime of credit card interest.

And yet, he and his family of 3 still travels all over the world on $5 plane tickets, cheap apartment rentals, and some other little-known travel hacks that completely took me by surprise.

Here’s what we have in store for you:

• How to get the absolute cheapest plane tickets
• Where to look for cheap flights
• How to get notified about the little-known flight hacks
• How to find cheap apartment rentals
• A secret they use for plane tickets using Wikipedia!
• How they stayed in a 5-bedroom mansion in Breckenridge with access to the BMW and Hot Tub for free
• What Travis recommends as everyone's first step to travel hacking



BONUS: He has a free webinar on Black Friday 2018 to show you the top tips to travel hacking. If you would rather bypass the long lines and learn from a pro, sign up here:

Eighteen months ago I brought my wife on the show to talk about how her and I FINALLY got on the same page with money inside our marriage.

The episode was one of the most downloaded episodes of all time...and then we were told by the news station she was working for at the time that the show would have to pulled down ASAP.

However, she has since retired and now the episode is being relaunched because I know how many of you will be able to relate.

The backstory…

We had just got married, had great jobs, and a really good income. We felt like we were rich...and we behaved like it.

After three years of doing dumb things with money, we eventually went completely broke.

We had maxed out credit cards, overdrafted our bank accounts, had zero money saved, and we were literally sitting there at our kitchen table feeling completely hopeless.

We didn’t know what to do. I had a plan but then she had a better plan. She made more money that I did but I was the one who handled the money.

We went through a ton of ups and downs, but eventually came together and big things started happening.

We started saving more money…

We started paying off more debt…

We stopped fighting about money…

And we did it all together.

Still today, one of the questions I get all the time is, “Peach, how did you get your wife on board with your money plan?”

Here’s what we are talking about in today’s episode:

• What it takes to get on board
• The struggles we faced
• What she did that changed everything
• How much she spends on a dress today vs 6 years ago
• Our “entertainment” monthly budget
• The most difficult thing she faced when climbing towards financial freedom
• What life is like now we are debt free


What you will find in this episode is the raw truth: it wasn’t easy. The number one cause of divorce in North America is money fights and money problems. Somehow we managed to stay married through the ups and downs of our finances, but in the end we are stronger than ever both financially and inside our marriage.

Money truly does touch every aspect of your life…especially your marriage.

Joseph Hogue is an online serial entrepreneur. What I mean by that is he has created multiple different income streams online and has had success multiple times over.

I asked Joseph to come on the show to share his journey with us so we can create some ideas of our own when it comes to generating income online.

Joseph has owned 6 different personal finance blogs.

All of Joseph’s blogs have made money and he has even sold two of them.

He has also authored 10 books which he sells passively on Amazon for $2,000/month.

Joseph has an online course on investing which in another stream of income.

He has also grown his YouTube channel by 23,000+ subscribers over the past 10 months.

He knows how to create something from nothing and he’s coming on the show to share some of his best tips for getting started online (and in any niche).

Here’s what we discuss:

• How he started his blog
• Why he recommends self-publishing to make money early on
• How to create multiple income streams online
• His early success with YouTube
• Why creating an online course is extremely profitable
• How to stand out from the “noise” in the online space
