So, we will now address debt pay-down and student loans.

I’m going to start generally by emphasizing that paying off debt is the most important thing that you can do to boost your financial well-being and advance towards financial freedom.

Why?

That’s because this really is the first step to financial freedom.

You need to stop taking on new debt and get rid of any and all debt you have.

Look, when you are in a hole the first step is to stop digging. Then start climbing out. You can’t run until you get out of the hole.

So, this is a huge thing that should definitely be at or near the top of your financial priority list that will go in your financial plan.

Each $1 you use to pay off debt is $1 that your net worth increases.

So, that’s what I am doing now. Every month, I throw huge sums of money at my debt.
