Manifest Money & Achieve Financial Freedom

[⇒ Watch Joel's interview here]
Have you ever felt like everything was going well in your career, but something deep inside told you there was more?
Joel Salomon knows this feeling. He was successfully running a hedge fund, working with investors, and achieving financial goals. But everything changed during a single, powerful moment at a personal development conference—a moment that would alter the course of his life forever.
Joel’s career began as an actuary, where he qualified as a Fellow of the Society of Actuaries. He moved into credit analysis at Moody’s then to a private investor role in an insurance company. After the whole division was laid off, he jumped at the offer to work in credit risk management in Zurich, living his dream and exploring 30 countries whilst there.
Back in New York, he joined a small hedge fund in 2008, managing a portfolio during one of the most challenging times in the financial markets. His dream was to build his own hedge fund, and in 2013, he did just that with SaLaurMor Capital. Everything seemed to be falling into place—until he went to that conference.
The Turning Point: A Personal Development Breakthrough
At the conference, two key moments turned everything upside down for Joel. First, a guest speaker made stock options sound easy and risk-free, triggering an immediate gut reaction from Joel. “I felt sick to my stomach,” he recalls. It felt like a misleading oversimplification of wealth-building.
As people rushed to sign up for the speaker’s programme, Joel knew they were being misled—many were in financial straits, and most would likely lose the little life savings they had. In that moment, he realized that his role in the financial world could be different.
The second moment came during an exercise where participants broke wooden boards, symbolizing breaking through their limiting beliefs. Joel’s board represented a bold goal: Make everyone in this room financially free. After he broke the board, something shifted. He couldn’t sleep that night, wrestling with a new understanding of his true purpose.
Taking Action: A Bold Decision
Though he hadn’t yet got the courage, lying awake in the night, Joel had an undeniable certainty. “I just knew I had to take action,” he says. He couldn’t ignore the call anymore. In the quiet hours before dawn, he went to his office, sent an email to his investors, and told them he was shutting down SaLaurMor Capital. He was returning their money, and, as he put it, “I’ve found my true purpose.”
This wasn’t just about money for Joel. He believes that prosperity is about more than accumulating wealth—it's about richness in all aspects of life: relationships, satisfaction, and living authentically. He wanted to help others break free from limiting beliefs and discover this kind of abundance, to experience not just financial freedom but a more holistic sense of well-being.
Building a New Path: Coaching and Money Manifestation
Joel’s success on this new path wasn’t immediate. He started by offering free coaching through a local meetup group, gradually accepting donations, and eventually launching paid programs. Over time, he developed a suite of offerings designed to help people transform their relationship with money.
Today, Joel runs multiple programs, including:
- A three-month stock investing course that teaches participants how to make smart investment decisions.
- A program for spiritual entrepreneurs, aimed at yoga teachers, meditation instructors, energy healers, and other heart-centered business owners who want to build wealth in alignment with their values.
- The Money Miracles membership, which provides weekly community calls, expert guest speakers, training videos, and a private Facebook group. Since launching in September 2021, members have manifested an incredible $2,369,000 collectively.
Success Stories: Real-Life Money Manifestations
Joel’s coaching has helped people manifest extraordinary financial results. Some of the most inspiring stories from his clients include:
- A client who received an unexpected check for $322,000.
- A homeowner whose sale price increased by $189,000—far beyond expectations.
- Many individuals who have seen rapid shifts in their financial situations simply by changing their beliefs about money.
These results aren’t just luck. Joel teaches that wealth begins in the mind, and by adopting empowering beliefs, anyone can create financial abundance.
Joel’s Manifestation Technique: Affirmation and Action
One of Joel’s most powerful manifestation techniques is a daily affirmation practice. He recommends writing the following statement for five minutes each day for 30 days: “I, [your name], have manifested at least [an amount you can believe].”
This technique works because it combines belief, repetition, and intention. Joel emphasizes the importance of phrasing the affirmation in the past tense (as if the money has already arrived) and avoiding specific deadlines, allowing the universe to deliver in divine timing.
However, mindset alone isn’t enough—action is crucial. Joel encourages his clients to take steps toward their financial goals and make themselves visible to opportunities. He believes that the universe co-creates with those who actively participate in their own success.
The Reward: Freedom and Fulfillment
Today, Joel is living his mission—helping others break free from financial limitations and experience true abundance. He finds immense joy in seeing his clients transform their lives, and he knows firsthand the power of aligning mindset with money.
He often shares a quote from Napoleon Hill: “Whatever the mind can conceive and believe, it can achieve.” This philosophy underpins his work, inspiring people to believe in their own potential and take bold steps toward financial freedom.
What’s Your Next Step?
