The Money Expert: “If I Was Broke Today, This Is EXACTLY What I’d Do To Become Debt-Free” | Anthony O’Neal

Consumer debt free means that, you know, anything outside of my real estate, anything outside of an asset, I'm going to pay cash for it. Because I want to have ownership to where when I'm blessed to have a family, when I'm blessed to have kids, then I can wake up and decide what I want to do with my life, not what do I have to do because I owe every woman. That's just the bottom line.

I think it's because they don't want to sit back and be honest and be different. You know, it's easy to blend in with the world because everyone is doing this. Everyone is talking about an 800 credit score. Everyone is saying, you know, even like with me, you know, you're engaged to an amazing woman, getting married soon. I'm still single, right?

Like a credit score does not mean that I'm good with my money. I think a lot of people are stuck because they're trying to to have this perfect three digit score. But you can't pass down the three digit score. You can't give your son or your daughter and build a legacy with that score. So I'm focused on, OK, how do I take the seat at the head of my table?

How do I position my family who's at the side of my table, who's at the opposite side of my table, my wife? What is the best thing I need to do with my finances to make sure that when I am transitioning to heaven, that I can leave them with something and I can't do that with the score? Really? Can't do that with a score. So for me, it's all about what am I investing? How much debt do I have?

How do I eliminate that? What's my insurance policies? And also, too, what wealth am I leaving behind? And when I say wealth, it's not just about the finances. It's about what wisdom and knowledge am I leaving behind? And this is something that we do not talk on social media. Influencers don't talk about this. Louis, to this day, I started this about four years ago.
