Long story short, have roughly $80k in bad debt, make nearly $110k household income, and am a military member serving overseas in Germany trying to get back into the Real Estate investment world.Now for the question: Do we continue to focus on debt(on track to be debt free next summer) and then save up for a down payment/100% down when we go back to the states at the end of 2021, OR do we put our Dave Ramsey inspired debt snowball on hold and start investing from overseas?
