"Hey Shannah, I'm reading a lot of articles that talk about the extreme side of personal finance and I find myself falling prey to the stereotypes that I'm not succeeding in my finances unless I'm 100% debt-free and that just seems impossible to me. I read all these articles about people who are retiring by 40 and paying off massive amounts of debt, but I'm not sure that's the vision I have for my life...please provide some insight."

On This Podcast Episode:

The topic of extreme personal finance is one I have a lot to say about. I'm breaking down the good, the bad, and all the in-between on this episode in what I hope will be a thought-provoking discussion about the journey to be 100% debt-free.

In fact, I recently was quoted in a U.S. News & World Report article about this very topic with some other like-minded CFP® professionals who share my viewpoint and had some very insightful knowledge to add to the topic.
