There may be many reasons you can find that will inspire you to embark on your own journey to debt freedom. And there are many ways that you could become acquainted with the idea of gaining financial autonomy.
That moment of clarity can be sparked when a credit card is rejected, or maybe a small talk from a friend, or perhaps simply trying to find a great deal on an apartment to rent, either way, it doesn’t take much for us to aspire to strive for a better financial status in life.
As for Ketuan Baldwin, our guest on this episode of The His & Her Money Show, having a daughter and leaving a legacy for her is all it took for him to steer towards the road to financial freedom. Listen as we take a look at how Ketuan managed to pay off about $90,000 of debt in a little over 3 years.
Like many people, Ketuan wanted to provide a financially secure future for his daughter. His journey started off simply by wondering how people go about making a great impact on other people’s lives. Gathering this knowledge, coupled with a great deal of desire to leave a positive imprint for the people dearest to him, ultimately led him to accomplish his financial goals.
Sometimes a great sacrifice is necessary in order to speed up the process of paying off debt. No matter how painful it was to spend time away from his daughter, to Ketuan it was a temporary sacrifice for a long-term gain.
Now that he’s living a debt-free life, the future couldn’t be any brighter for Ketuan. With his newly acquired knowledge and discipline, he is able to determine matters that would have been unclear if he was still buried in debt. He is finally able to leave a lasting legacy for his family for generations to come.
