Pay Off 5-Figure Consumer Debt in 18-24 Months with the Debt Snowball Method
The Table with Anthony ONealPlay episode
Show notes
What if the financial goal you’re chasing is actually costing you the life you’re trying to build?
Anthony O’Neal gets personal about making $1 million in year one, $2 million in year two, and realizing he had no target, no finish line, and no idea what he was really running toward. In this episode, Anthony breaks down how to calculate your own financial number using the 300 rule, determine whether you can realistically get there, shrink the number by eliminating consumer debt, and decide what your life should look like once you reach it. Financial freedom isn’t about chasing more forever. It’s about knowing your number, counting the cost, and building a life where your money gives you back your time, family, faith, and freedom.
