How You Can Dump Debt and Retire Early

Frustrated with your credit card, car payments, and student loans? Learn how you two can come together to dump your debt faster and retire early!  How You Can Retire Early Let me ask you two questions.  Where are you guys right now?  Where do you want to be in five years?  Does it seem like there is a huge gap between today and five years from now?    If you would've told me five years ago we'd be out of debt (except for the mortgage) and be on our way towards financial independence I'd think you'd be a little crazy. Sure, I was optimistic, but it wouldn't feel possible with all that we were juggling at the time.    But when you break down your goal into chunks and you work out a system which for us includes automating, you can see huge results. The good news is that the skills you use to get out of debt are transferable. Instead of sending in those extra payments to your credit cards and student loans, you can direct to savings and investments. Deacon Hayes, personal finance author and Well Kept Wallet founder, is on today and we're getting into how he and his wife Kim made this transition. In this episode, we talk about: how they managed to pay off $52,000 in debt in 18 months the system they used to keep one another in the loop with money planning and following through financial independence Hope you enjoy!
