Content creation is the key to being Financially free.

I have always dreamed of being free and not feeling like I have to wake up and work. I found a way to do this with the LKS Money system. But I found an issue, that system supports me, but now I have met someone amazing and want them not to wake up and feel like they have to work. Hence I have created The LKS Money System: 2.0 — Create content to make you content (I know the name needs work).

The method

In my first blog, I talk about how I only make 12k a year and feel like life is complete. My method to reaching this is:

  1. Understand what makes you happy.
  2. Understand what I need to earn to fund doing that.
  3. I understand how I can make that money.

The whole system is based around life happiness first and then building a method to reach that. The new system has the same foundations but with one key tweak. Its to make content in step 3.

In my first blog, I discuss finding something you love as your method of funding part 2. This still applies, but now we make content about this and in that field. The new system looks like this:

  1. Understand what makes you happy, and you're passionate about
  2. Understand what you need to fund to earn that happiness
  3. Create content in one of those areas of passion

From theory to practice

So the theory is all great but does the new system actually work? In the old system, I worked 10 hours a week as a sports coach and loved life. I no longer do this. I now mainly create content as my main source of income. After the pandemic, I sat down and reevaluated step 1.

I still love to learn, play sport and create memories, but I now have a significant other I want to bring along that journey. I also found a passion for creating videos and sharing people's stories, my content creation money maker in part 3.

With the inclusion of another adult in my life, my figure for part 2 has also increased, which meant that I needed to find a new money-making scheme. Hence I launched my content production house — LKS Focus. I create content for small businesses and brands to share their story online.

And yes, it makes me good money. In August of 2021 worked only 2 days, making the same money I make coaching sport.

But I do not know how to make content.

I understand that making content can seem a complex skill, but anyone can learn and for FREE.

I started making videos of my mates climbing and uploaded them to my youtube channel. No one really watched them, but I skilled up fast and loved the whole process. I then expanded into looking for more and more projects to keep pushing my skills forward. Eventually, brands started asking me to create videos for them, and my content creation brand had lift-off.

You can follow this process. Start making content around your passion, skill up to the point where people see your value and away.

I am currently helping my girlfriend put this system into place.

But what about the figures

In my last money system blog, I dug into the numbers, but I am not going to this time because you will succeed if you follow the new system.

If you like this system, please give me a follow. In an upcoming blog, I will explain why I am moving back into my parent's house to double down on content creation and truly build….
