Do you plan to stay in debt forever? Do you even have a plan to get free from your present debt or how long it will take for you to do it? I hope so, but if not, this book will help you chart that path.

The average US household credit card debt stands at $15,593, counting only those households carrying debt. Americans owe $11.62 trillion in personal debt of various kinds. They owe $8.05 trillion in mortgages and an additional $1,122.7 billion in student loans. The bad news is that some many are in debt, it has become accepted as normal. But debt isn’t normal. It robs us of freedom to live a more flexible, fun, and fruitful life.
