#199: He thought this show was dumb, debt was bad.

He originally listened to laugh rather than for financial education.

In 2009, Get Rich Education (GRE) listener Dustin Jones suffered a personal bankruptcy as a result of high real estate commercial debt tied to properties with declining value.

His goal was to be debt-free by age 40.

In 2015, that all changed when he began listening to Get Rich Education.

He learned that financially-free beats debt-free.

Now Dustin embraces debt again by strategically turning equity into cash flow.

He has $781,000 in debt, and hopes to have $1.1M to $1.2M by year-end. Isn't that counterintuitive?

It's a fascinating story of tragedy, resilience, learning, strength, and self-belief with remarkable Michigan-based GRE listener Dustin Jones.
