It's No Secret

6. How Much Debt is Too Much Debt?


Listen Later

Today on the show we are tackling the question of:

HOW MUCH DEBT IS TOO MUCH DEBT?

Welcome to the debt life, we love it here. Just kidding - sometimes we do and sometimes we don't, it really depends on what debt we're talking about and when you asked us.

Most of us would know, not all debt is created equal - there are good debts and bad debts. But how do we know whether the amount of debt we have is okay, or way too high? Cat and Christine share some stories (as always) and discuss all the things they love about the debt life. 

In this episode we cover: 

  • What exactly are  good debts and bad debts
  • Being realistic with your debt levels when buying your first home
  • Whether being debt-free really is the key to financial success
  • The waterfall debt payment method, offset accounts and doing more with your money 
  • The trouble with instagram and comparing debt-free journeys
