Uncover a Step-By-Step Process to Live the “Laptop Lifestyle” and Make Money from Anywhere in the World as a “Digital Nomad”
The Internet Has Made “Working from Wherever” Possible for Everyone (Even if You’re Super Traditional).
If you’re here, you already know that when you run an online business, a whole new world opens up to you–literally. You can easily visit new cities and countries while working online. In fact, working from Wi-Fi has become THE most popular way most people fulfill their dream of traveling the world.
There are lots of other proven benefits to skipping town for a while, too: Living somewhere new – with fresh surroundings, culture, food and other attractions to explore – can bring a refreshing change of pace to your life. And that change of pace can also bring a new level of inspiration, income, and impact to your life.
Even better? This lifestyle isn’t just for entrepreneurs, either. Remote work & the “gig” economy have made it more commonplace for any & everyone who is ready to give up the “traditional” thinking that travel is reserved for the rich and/or retired to take their lives on the road.
But there is one problem…
Becoming “Location Independent” Requires Work!
If you envy that friend on IG who’s in Dubai one month & Paris the next, the truth is, it isn’t as “easy peasy” as s/he makes it look. Especially if you already have a full life at home, you can’t simply pack up your laptop & half your wardrobe & basic toiletries & hit the road (or jet). If you want to live the laptop lifestyle that will allow you (and your family) to live & work anywhere in the world, there are a few things to consider before you embark on a global adventure.
And now for the first time, I’m breaking it all down for you, step-by-step, so it doesn’t have to feel so hard.

Provincial regulators of CPAs in Canada do not require that independent providers of CPD be approved to offer courses. Instead, individual CPAs are responsible for assessing whether a CPD activity meets their requirements, and may take activities from any source provided those requirements are met.
Every course offered on LearnFormula is delivered by a qualified subject matter expert or learning organization, and advances learning objectives that are relevant to the responsibilities or professional competencies of Canadian CPAs. All activities on LearnFormula are quantifiable in terms of hours, and are also verifiable, in that users receive documented evidence of their attendance via a certificate of completion after finishing a course (and this certificate is stored by LearnFormula indefinitely). Nearly 100,000 Canadian CPAs successfully satisfy their CPD requirements via LearnFormula on an annual basis.
