Publisher's summary
You have a good job, you work hard, and your family is depending on you. Yet every month your credit card balance grows while your savings dwindle. Why is it so dang hard to get our debts in check? Probably because your credit card statement, weekly shopping routine, and even the phone in your hand are crammed full of purple elephants.
You think you need every one of them. You tell yourself they are essential. You are not willing to give them up, because each one of them adds a layer of superficial comfort to your life. But the truth is, purple elephants will spiral your debt out of control and damage your retirement, your family, and your peace of mind. The things you buy in the name of convenience are the same things that keep you awake at night, wondering how you're going to get out of this black hole of debt.
Join Paxton S. Finnegan as he helps you retake the helm of the out-of-control safari that your financial life has become. For the next seven weeks:
- You will lead an uncompromising expedition through your financial life.
- You will track for signs in your bank statement, credit card bill, mortgage, personal items, leisure time, and even your social media.
- You will partner with your family and make them your most valuable allies, rather than a source of festering resentment.
- You will implement strategies to eliminate, reduce, consolidate, or restructure your debts.
- You will begin a new journey of savings and investments.
It's time to reevaluate what is "essential". It's time to cull the herd. Gather the whole family together; it's time to hunt some purple elephants!

Do you find yourself worrying about what you’re going to do once you get out of college? 70 percent of college graduates enter the workforce with over $30,000 in debt. But this doesn't have to be you. You don't have to become part of yet another statistic. Being financially independent as you walk off that graduation stage is not a far-fetched fantasy. This is not a reality reserved solely for those who have very wealthy parents. You can achieve financial success even while in school, and can carry this forward with you throughout the rest of your life.

In my youth, I never thought I could own any property, let alone more than one. When I started my real estate business, I had no idea what to do or where to begin. I didn’t even know there were so many paths to consider. I wish I had someone guided me through the beginning stages of learning how to get into real estate. Years later, I’m happy to provide the shortcuts I wish I had known to get started. Now I’m making the income I never thought I could, and I’m now financially free to work when and how I want. The only regret I’ve ever had is wishing I had started sooner.

Since you were old enough to hold a job, you've been hoodwinked to believe that wealth can be created by blindly trusting in the uncontrollable and unpredictable markets: the housing market, the stock market, and the job market. I call this soul-sucking, dream-stealing dogma "The Slowlane" - an impotent financial gamble that dubiously promises wealth in a wheelchair. For those who don't want a lifetime subscription to "settle-for-less", there is an alternative.

Very few careers can offer you the freedom, flexibility, and income that day trading does. As a day trader, you can live and work anywhere in the world. You can decide when to work and when not to work. You only answer to yourself. That is the life of the successful day trader. Many people aspire to it, but very few succeed. In the audiobook, I describe the fundamentals of day trading, explain how day trading is different from other styles of trading and investment, and elaborate on important trading strategies that many traders use every day.

Great book
This is a great book that is excellently narrated. This can help so many people. In times when living costs are increasing at an alarming rate, we can all look at ways we can save money. This book has given me some great tips for looking at my finances in a different way and for how to control my spending on unnecessary things. I have already implemented some of these and am starting to see real improvements. A great one to give to your teenage kids to, giving them a head start.

The Elephant in The Room!
This time of year is extremely hard on the pocket. Here in the Uk, we have high fuel prices and the cost of living is going up and up. Hunting Purple Elephants is all the "7"'s, 7 steps in 7 weeks. This very well-produced audiobook will help you to eliminate unnecessary spending and increase your household income. It's a great book.

The kick in the butt we needed
I love the no-nonsense way this book spells it all out. You're spending too much. You're not taking advantage of all the ways to save. Snap out of it! Lol. There's also a lot of compassion there; we're just not taught how to do this, and we need help as adults. I really enjoyed it. And the narrator is awesome.

Fantastic book!
Good financial audiobook to listen. Paxton wake me up and start having a look on my finance. I got a lot good idea from this audiobook in term of financial management. Plus the author simplified the words, so it is not too difficult for me to understand as a non native English speaker.
This book motivate me a lot, and I realize that there are many ways to invest. I highly recommend!!

A great listen!
This is one of my favorite topics to learn more about, as I feel like you should always be checking in on your spending and finding new ways to put your money to work. Hunting Purple Elephants offered some excellent tips, some that I currently use, and some that I am interested to try, on how to get the most out of your money. Definitely worth the read.
