The Income Trap

The CFO's Playbook to Financial Freedom

High Income. High Stress. No Freedom.You've done everything right — the degrees, the promotions, the six-figure salary. But somehow you're still trapped. Trading time for money. Chained to a paycheck. Watching your income rise while your freedom stays flat. There's a better game to play.

The Playbook to Break Free

The Income Trap gives you the same frameworks a CFO uses to build real wealth — through ownership, not just income. Inside you'll learn your Freedom Number, the CFO Flywheel, and a step-by-step system to escape the cycle and build assets that work for you.
