How to Find Freedom in an Unfree World

I Have Bad News and Good News

The bad news: crazy and sinister people, who also happen to despise you, have gained control of every major institution in the Western world.

They're destroying the money you use, colonizing your children's minds with weird ideologies, and making your society increasingly unlivable.

I have heard so many horror stories about the latest left-wing craze breaking up families:

  • "My child went off to school and came back unrecognizable."
  • "My child won't speak to be anymore because of how I voted."
  • "My child despises everything I taught him was good."

If the prospect of that doesn't put a knot in your stomach, you are made of stronger stuff than I.

Or:

  • "I was just hit with a huge medical bill, and I don't have the savings to cover it."
  • "I'm 55, just got the pink slip, and the job market for me today is impossible."
  • "My income isn't keeping up with price inflation, and I fear I won't be able to be a good provider."
  • "I've been putting off saving for retirement, and now I'm worried I'll never catch up."

We all know that list could go on.

Or:

  • "I know I'm overweight, but nothing works for me and the discouragement is overwhelming. The official dietary guidelines sure aren't helping."
  • "My diet is a mess, I don't even know where to begin in terms of fitness, and the inertia is killing me."

It's about time we tackle practical issues like these, and dozens of others besides, before writing another academic treatise that 50 people will read.

The good news: I've assembled a community of normal people who are putting their heads and talents together to navigate this hostile world and not merely to survive it, but even to prosper and thrive in it, while also fighting back against it.

If you have the sense that maybe we've reached a point where writing angry letters to the editor just aren't going to cut it anymore, well, that's exactly where I am, too.

I still write, and I still record my podcast, but nowadays I'm more focused on helping people become unbreakable in a world that hates them.

Hence the Tom Woods School of Life.

And I'm inviting you to take it for a spin for a full 30 days for just a buck.

Inside the School of Life you'll learn something practical every single month that makes us smarter, stronger, more prosperous, and better insulated against the psychos who rule us.

Also: we keep each other accountable in our small groups. Whatever your goal is, we'll help you get there. Whether it's

  • losing weight and becoming physically fit (see Dave Loffredo's story, below);
  • leaving that soul-crushing corporate job;
  • getting that book published;
  • starting a business so you're not tethered to The Man

our members have done all of these things and many more. Whatever your goal, you'll have much more success in our groups -- where you get excellent advice, make valuable connections, and stay accountable -- than you can on your own.

(And if you'd just like to make some good friends who see the world the way you do, well, we have plenty of that going on as well.)

I for one don't relish going it alone against the media, the universities, the entertainment world, the mainline churches, and the corporate CEOs. I'm sure you don't, either.

Now we don't have to.


A Glimpse at What's Inside

Here's a sampling of what awaits you in the members' area, where you'll find a small group to fit every schedule, as well as recordings of all the plenary sessions we've ever held, on topics like:

  • Specific strategies to win in a blue state when you’re hopelessly outnumbered (Ali Rak video).
  • The most canceled filmmaker in America, how he's more successful and fulfilled than ever, and how you can apply his methods (session 26).
  • A former U.S. congressman, in fact the last Republican opponent of the Iraq war to retire, on relocation in an age of psychotic state governments (session 5).
  • ​The owner of a 7-figure cooking website, who taught us how she built it (and she happens to be one of our members; as I said, this community is full of impressive people) and what she recommends a beginner do. (Session 9.)
  • ​An expert on getting other people to pay for your kids’ schooling (if you know where to look, you can start getting scholarships in first grade!). (Session 11.)
  • ​A hostage negotiator on how Harvard’s myths about negotiating, believed by everyone, are making you not get what you want — and how to turn that around (session 21).
  • ​A free-market professor from Columbia Business School (I promise he’s a good guy) who revealed the best investments for today’s upside-down world (session 3).

Great stuff so far, right? These are all people who see the world the way you do and who want to share information with you that you won't find anywhere else.

But there's plenty more (and even this just scratches the surface):

  • ​A man in his mid-30s whose words have sold $400 million in goods and services, on an occupation perfect for liberty lovers that requires no formal training, that you can’t be fired from, and that you can learn in a month (Henry Bingaman video). And every Tuesday night we teach you how to do it!
  • ​Harry Browne’s secret for becoming debt-free in just seven months (session 2).
  • How two working parents can homeschool their kids without stress (AMA session).
  • How to keep your homeschooled kids engaged and motivated (forget the threats and bribes this is a much easier and practical solution) (AMA session).
  • How to master the rare skill that will get you ahead in business (and in life), and make you look like a boss to your friends (session 15). (I teach you this myself!)
  • How to de-program the heavily propagandized (CJ Killmer video).
  • How to raise money to start a business and declare your independence (John Foster video).
  • The best-performing asset class of the past four generations and it isn’t even close (session 3).
  • How about this one: how far you should live from a nuclear power plant (and did you know it depends on whether you’re east or west of the plant?) (Session 6.)
  • How not to write like a dork, and instead stand out from the pack with your writing (session 27, with New York Times bestselling author Tom Woods that's me).
  • How to quiet that inner critic that undermines your every move (session 16).
  • ​How to come up with a business idea you can implement and scale in record time (session 7).
  • ​The supposedly “dying industries” that are generating massive returns (session 3).
  • Fitness facts and fallacies: exercises that waste your time or risk injury, and exercises that actually help you make progress (Henri Pellerin video).
  • And a whole lot and I mean a whole lot more.

What People Are Saying

The School of Life drastically changed the direction of my business.

I had a business that was very rollercoaster financially.

I struggled with this business for 12 years.

I now have steady revenue growth, I've got recurring revenue, and I've got a successful business, and I completely give Tom Woods and [Tom's colleague in the community] John Foster credit for that.

Alan Claypool

There is no part of my adult life that has not been improved since joining Tom's School of Life.

This network has helped me become a better husband, father, employee and business owner.

Kevin Stokes

I joined the School of Life several months ago. I have to admit that I have been almost 100% inactive....

However...another member found my information there, looked up my business, and we just had a great phone call, one that could lead to [high estimate I cannot reveal --TW] of dollars of revenue for my business. If this is the only deal I e er get through the School of Life, it will make it worth it to keep my membership for the rest of my life.

Josh Steimle

While I joined my accountability to get a side hustle going, an opportunity for a new job came my way which I had to go for.

But not only did my group help me get the job but they also aided me in negotiating [$X] more for my salary offer. It’s been a huge blessing to have my accountability group!

Ali Rak

(TW note: Sorry, but a certain federal agency won't let us mention dollar amounts.)

Last week I had the breakthrough I was looking for when I joined your group. I accepted an offer from a local company with [an X%] pay increase, better benefits, and responsibilities that fit where I want to take my career.

What helped was your accountability groups, especially Barb Williams.

When I start my job in another week, I won’t be struggling to put food on the table. I won’t have to agonize over having to keep my kids out of activities they work hard to excel at.

Thank you so much for putting this community together.

Derek Rinaldo

(TW note: Sorry, but a certain federal agency won't let us mention percentages.)

The School of Life's fitness call may have saved my life.... I have lost 60 pounds, gone from a 40-inch to a 32-inch waist, from pre-diabetic to no risk, and from a high heart attack risk to low.

This has been a very difficult year for me, and I have no doubt that the person before Tom's fitness call would have been handling it with junk food and alcohol. I most likely would have gained 50 pounds. Instead, with a lot of help from the group, I shrug it off and keep going.

Dave Loffredo

It’s not a stretch to say that just meeting [filmmaker] Justin Hawkins -- by itself! -- was more than worth joining the School of Life. Not just because of the money and the job, but also because I know I will be friends with him indefinitely.

Just being around people like him and having honest, engaging, interesting and motivational conversations has been life altering.

Then there’s Antony S. He’s coaching me through my procrastination and is just a great person to know and have on your side.

And Barbara W., whom I have had the pleasure to meet in person as well as on accountability group calls. Dave the scholarship coach has been such a resource. He's offered help as my daughters begin their post high school lives.

Every interaction and conversation has been so valuable not only in its depth but mostly in its inspiration. You have begun assembling a group of people who are making a difference in good people’s lives.

Chris Polster

I’ve just formed a mastermind partnership with a young lady I met from one of the accountability groups. That “third mind” formed Napoleon-Hill style — she and I are so excited. We will amplify results because we’re checking in DAILY.

This is a godsend. One of the most valuable contributions anyone has made to my life. We’re going to make you proud, Tom! Just keep doing what you’re doing. The right people are going to find you. This space you’ve created is magical.

WHAT YOU GET

Remember Nancy Pelosi telling us we needed to pass Obamacare to find out what was in it?

There's so much inside the School of Life I almost feel compelled to say the same thing, but I'll do my best to run down all the benefits:

  • Two monthly live sessions with a guest speaker on topics like the ones above: business, investing, homeschooling, public speaking, fitness, health, productivity, and (among many other things) how to inoculate your kids against the latest left-wing craze;
  • Our entire library of recordings of these calls, on scores of valuable and actionable topics, and conveniently accessible from our mobile app for those times when you can't take any more doom-and-gloom podcasts;
  • The School of Life report on how to relocate on a budget;
  • Weekly copywriting training, where you can learn a skill that can (a) save you zillions of dollars in your business, or (b) earn you plenty of smackers when you do it for a living (the entire membership could consist of this benefit alone and would be worth twice the price);
  • For U.S.-based members: our print newsletter, sent to your physical mailbox and packed with success stories from our members, along with specific advice you can implement yourself;
  • Our book club, in which we discuss a book that teaches us something practical to improve our finances, our health, our parenting, or dozens of other areas of our lives, the key word being practical;
  • Our accountability groups, for entrepreneurship, personal development, and health/fitness;
  • Our weekly tech calls, for IT, programming, and tech project management;
  • Our weekly AI session, where you can learn the latest ways to leverage AI to save time and get more done;
  • For Christians (or interested non-Christians) we have a weekly Bible study group;
  • Our weekly content creation session, for writers, podcasters, speakers, YouTubers, and social media creators;
  • Our weekly mixer call, for networking and socializing;
  • Our twice-monthly women's call (this one's for women only, as you may have guessed);
  • Our annual in-person conference (members get in free), where we'll give no-fluff, no-theory, actionable training on all the topics we cover, and where you'll meet in person the friends you've made in your groups (you will have a BLAST, as we've all had at our three previous conferences);
  • The Tom Woods Email Domination Program, which walks you step by step through how to build an email list, how to monetize that list, and how to write to the list — the most lucrative online skill you can possibly have;
  • Our monthly financial session, where we learn not only better money management but also how to make our money grow.

None of this is mandatory (how could it be?), so attend what you can and what interests you. All these resources are at your fingertips for as long as you stay with us, and any one of them could justify the entire membership.

There's Nothing Else Like It

We've obviously needed something like this for a long time; I doubt I'll find much disagreement there.

Our side has all these smart, ambitious, talented, and fascinating people — why has it taken so long for us to bring those smarts and talents together in order to make all of us stronger, in terms of career, finance, parenting and education, health, and so much more?

The other side is full of yes men who get their opinions from the TV.

Our side is the mavericks, the creators, the freethinkers, the geniuses, the visionaries, and the people who just don't care if the New York Times likes them or not.

Now that is a community worth its weight in gold.

These are people who see the world the way you do. You can speak openly around them. You don't have to hide your views. You don't need to explain yourself around them.

And it's that kind of group that's going to take you your life, your business, your skills, your family, your health to new heights.

If there's another community out there like the one I've just described to you, then you've got a real decision to make.

If there isn't (and there isn't), I think you know what to do.

Finding freedom in an unfree world — which means more than politics: it means being free from poor health, financial insecurity, ideologues brainwashing your kids, and a lot more — isn't going to come from writing angry letters to the editor, or arguing on Facebook.

It's happening right here, right now, inside the Tom Woods School of Life.

When you surround yourself with the right people, things happen.

Click that button and join me in the most important venture in our movement's history:

The Tom Woods School of Life rebills at $97/mo (or get two months free when you join for a year) after the 30-day trial period. So about a coffee a day, in other words. Cancel before the trial ends it's easy and you won't be billed. But you're about to discover that the value of this membership is ten times what we charge for it.
