Paying off all of my debt before starting.

[Chandler Drollinger]

I found myself listening to the bigger money podcast not to long ago, and decided that I want to start on a journey to being financially independent. At this moment I am just over 22k in debt. I bought a car at 19, had to put a new engine in my truck, and the student loans I had for my first year of college I attended are what make up my debt right now. I hustle at work and take all the overtime I can until I hit our cap each week. I put 10% of my check towards my Roth 401k, 5% towards discounted stocks through work, and deduct $200 from my check to put directly into my savings each week. With all of that being said I have mapped out over the next 10 months my finances if I keep up with what I’m doing and I will be completely debt free by the end of November 2019. I still live at home and will for one more year after I become debt free to save for my first home!
