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.
