Manage episode 419924569 series 1900058
If you follow these nine steps, you will reach financial independence. How do we know? Well, The Money Guy Show’s Brian Preston and Bo Hanson have tested it hundreds of times! Using this simple but extremely powerful “financial order of operations,” anyone from any background can achieve FIRE, even starting with nothing. From free money to becoming easily debt-free, building a solid financial foundation, and even paying off your mortgage early, Brian and Bo break down the exact route to financial freedom anyone can take.
But first, we’ll discover if you’re a “financial mutant.” The fact that you’re listening to BiggerPockets Money already proves that you might be. But for those who have struggled with high-interest credit card debt, low savings, and lackluster investing, this episode has EVERYTHING you need to become a financial powerhouse by making nine smart money moves.
We’ll walk through the entire financial order of operations, from saving money to cover your deductibles to building an emergency reserve, paying off bad debt, and the “hyper-accumulation” stage you must reach to watch your net worth explode. If you’re ready to take the steps to realize financial freedom in the not-so-distant future, stay with us and grab Brian’s newest book, Millionaire Mission!
In This Episode We Cover
The nine-step "financial order of operations" that will lead you to financial independence
Why building a $1,000 emergency fund is NOT enough and how much you really need
Whether or not to pay off your “high-interest” debt depending on your age
Why Brian and Bo advise people NOT to invest in real estate until they’re at THIS stage
The one investment account to max out before all the rest (it’s NOT your 401(k)!)
The “hyper-accumulation” stage that will explode your wealth (IF you can reach it)
And So Much More!
