Manage episode 405085448 series 2999971
Imagine shattering the chains of a $153,000 debt mountain on just one income—it's not a fairytale, it's my real-life conquest that I, Katie Hatfield, am thrilled to share with you. Journey with me as I reveal the practical maneuvers that propelled me to financial freedom in a remarkable five and a half years. From grasping the elusive concept of trailing interest to the strategic timing of credit card payments post-billing cycle, I lay bare the tricks that kept creeping interest at bay. Moreover, I'll let you in on how dodging those pesky overdraft fees and syncing bill due dates with cash flow can keep your hard-earned money where it belongs—in your pocket.
But the road to financial clarity doesn't end with banking savvy; it stretches into the daunting realm of healthcare expenses. Ever felt like medical bills are more cryptic than ancient hieroglyphs? I divulge how demanding an itemized bill after a sinus surgery not only unveiled the mystery but also slashed the cost. Harnessing the power of Health Savings Accounts (HSAs) and advocating for transparent medical billing are just the start. For those hungry for more fiscal knowledge, I've got just the treasure trove of wisdom, along with a workshop that could be the key to unlocking your own debt-free life. So, tune in and arm yourself with the insights that could steer your finances to victory.
