About Joel

In 2006, I owned a 70-person thriving real estate company and we built a waterfront dream home in a gated golf community. By 2010, we lost everything including my company, my house, my life savings, and by 2012 – my first marriage.

After a long period of feeling sorry for myself, I came across an old scrapbook. In it were hundreds of pictures of me & my kids visiting family and places all around the world.

The bank may have emptied the bank accounts and I may have had to start over financially, but no one could ever take those memories away. At that moment – I decided that the more I traveled, the more “non-foreclosable memories” I could build to get me through future tough times.

From then on, instead of working ridiculous hours and missing out on life in the process – I decided to travel twice as often.

Now (after travel helped me become a whole person again) I am happily re-married to an amazing woman who shares my passion for travel, my kids have two very healthy households, and regardless of my job status or income, I’ll never give up visiting friends, family, and new places all around the world. All because I’ve figured out how to do it for a fraction of the price that most people pay.

The more friends & places I visit, the happier I feel.

The happier I feel, the less I worry about what I don’t have.

The less I worry, the more productive work is.

The more productive work is…

You get the idea.

Why am I telling you all of this? Because travel has changed my life in ways I couldn’t have predicted and I will emphatically share my passion for travel with anyone who will listen.

I can’t do anything about how busy your life is, and how much (or how little) room you make in your life for travel…

But I CAN teach you how to find travel deals so affordable – that “cost” should no longer be an excuse for not just getting out of town more often.

How? We can help in 3 ways:

1) Our free Facebook Group 2) Our free coaching service (No sales pitch. I promise) 3) Our paid coaching service (That will save you ten times more than our free service (but no need to talk about that until you see that options 1 and 2 work for you.

Sincerely,

Joel McDonald

Curing workaholism one affordable trip at a time

HEY, I’M JOEL…

I was already a pretty savvy “budget” traveler 12 years ago (well, I THOUGHT I was.) Now, more than a decade later, after lots of practice and trial-and-error, I've added luxury travel on points into the mix, and the days of budget vacations are long behind me.

My wife and I not only travel 2- 3 times as often for the same budget as what I used to spend, but we do so in 4 & 5-star resorts. When we fly internationally, we fly in business or first-class.
