Sometimes, beginning your debt-free journey requires making some financial mistakes.

Danielle Martin, a single, recently graduated college student, had to get herself about 39k in student loan, car loan, and credit card debt before she finally shifted her mindset and took steps towards paying off her debt.

Although she left college with 13k in student loan debt, about six months out of college, she not only moved out of her parents’ house and into an apartment, sending half of her paycheck to rent, but also decided to buy a car, taking out another 23k in loans. 

She had more than doubled her debt within her first month of moving into an apartment, and rather than saving up and paying it off, she continued to spend her money on shopping. It wasn’t until both her debit card and credit card had been declined that she finally realized she needed to make some lifestyle changes.

 

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • Shifting your mindset to take steps towards eliminating debt

On this episode of The His & Her Money Show, we talk about the power of budgets to change your future with money coach, Ericka Young.

While most of us know we need to budget, most of us also know that we don’t like the budgeting process. Budgeting feels like a straitjacket. It feels like you’re depriving yourself.

Budgets don’t have to feel that way.

In fact, as Ericka Young shares with our listeners, restrictive is the opposite of how a budget should make you feel. A budget should leave you empowered. A simple, one-page budget can be a powerful tool for you and your family to manage your financial destiny.

As our guest Ryan Craig points out, the U.S. student loan debt total is at $1.5 TRILLION dollars.

This debt was incurred mostly by students who believed the dream that college would help them get a “good job”, only to find that the “good jobs” wanted employees with a different set of skills.

How do we fix this problem and how do we prevent the next generation of college-bound students from falling into the trap?

Give them alternatives.

That’s what Ryan Craig is all about. Ryan argues that now is the time to give cheaper and more targeted options for people, throughout their careers, whether they are high school students or experienced workers looking to advance their career.

  • What is causing the student loan crisis?
  • How much should we be saving for college?

Real estate investment is a long-term game that can reap some incredible benefits. However, buying a single home most likely won’t lead you towards complete financial independence.

Today, a real estate investing couple, Mark and Tamiel, are here to share their experience and journey into real estate syndication and how they are using this to build generational wealth and choice-filled lives for their children

Real estate syndication is, in short, group purchasing. It allows the average person to collectively gather money with other investors to buy properties that they would not be able to buy individually. 

Mark and Tamiel turned towards purchasing larger, multi-family units or apartment buildings because the track they were on would only lead them to financial independence late in life.

 

WHAT YOU WILL LEARN

  • Ways to get involved in real estate syndication
  • Differences between single-home and multi-unit investments
  • How to find trustworthy and reliable partners
  • Factors to consider before investing
  • How to manage and divide revenue for multi-unit investments
  • What to look for in an investment area
  • How to come up with the capital for an initial investment
