Trying to manage all of your expenses, eliminate debt, and invest, all while pursuing Financial Independence can be quite tricky. For this week's episode, I am having another listener Q & A where I answer questions to help you on your Financial Freedom journey.
In this episode I answer the following:
- Should I focus on paying off $100,000 student loan debt even though I'm in the Public Service Loan Forgiveness (PSLF) program or invest?
- Investing in pre-tax retirement accounts like a 401K, 457 or 403B plan vs a Roth IRA
- How to handle $1,200 a month daycare expenses on the journey to Financial Independence?
- Things to consider when making a big career change. Should you focus on investing more, paying off the house or saving more cash?
- How to determine if it makes sense to take legal action against a company to win money in a lawsuit?
At the end of the episode, I also share why I believe that you should never compare your journey to anyone else's.
