Debt Payoff Budget
Aggressive budget focused on eliminating debt fast.
When you are serious about eliminating debt, switch to a 50/20/30 budget where 30% goes to debt payments and savings. On $5,000/month, that is $1,500 dedicated to crushing debt. At this rate, you can eliminate $30,000 of debt in about 20 months. Once debt-free, redirect that $1,500 to investments and watch your net worth skyrocket.
