Paycheck SLAVES and the Road to Freedom. Creating your Escape $1 at a time.

from Christians and Money · host Dr. Trudy Beerman, DSL

Slavery exists where a person is in bondage to something and cannot express free choice.    Drug and alcohol addicts know their habit is potentially fatal, yet they reach for the next hit.  Those who sell this stuff are willing to give free samples and create the environment to trap those whose goal is an unreal flight of fantasy, a trip to the pain-free stratosphere. Play in that stratosphere long enough, and the strongest person will slip into the zone of slavery, and then the reality sets in, but escape is almost impossible. Some hate their jobs yet are just as addicted to the paycheck, and stay for their next hit. That next pay-date, when for maybe 24 hours, all is well with the world.  Too often, like the drug and alcohol high, this joy is also very temporary and the pain rush returns creating a cycle where you hang in there for the next payday, anticipating the temporary escape from the pain. This show is not for those who love their jobs, or for those who already know the freedom of doing what you love no matter how well, or how poorly it pays.  This show is for those who love their paycheck, and hate their jobs. There is a way to create your escape one dollar at a time.  Few will take this road, because as much as the idea of freedom is appealing, the golden handcuffs of the paycheck yanks them back in fear.  The painful known seems easier than the unknown path to freedom.  Believing the road exists, that you can walk it, and read the destination requires a faith that has been stripped away the longer the paycheck golden handcuffs are on.  Yet, some do take the first step, then the second, and the third. Learn How.
