We were LIVE on The Dave Ramsey Show to do our Debt Free Scream and to share how we paid off our student loans and became debt free!! (This is a screen recording from the original YouTube LIVE from Ramsey Solutions)

Below are some great resources that helped us!

OUR STORY:
We are both Doctors of Physical Therapy from Los Angeles and graduated with $361,000 of grad school student loan debt.

After one year of getting nowhere and barely making a dent, we got laser focused and attacked our debt with a VENGEANCE using Dave Ramsey's 7 baby steps! We paid $50,000 the first year and most of it sadly went to interest

No, we did not inherit any money or refinance or consolidate or borrow or sell anything. Although we did think about selling our blood plasma...

We each worked a minimum of 23 good paying jobs at a time. This included both our steady physical therapy jobs, Erica's soy candle/succulent side business (Barton Burns), & we both taught classes at a University after work or on our days off.

For extra change: We picked up cash pay physical therapy gigs, worked overtime, picked up coins off the sidewalks, Anthony repaired cars, etc

We sacrificed and spent money on nothing unless carefully budgeted for. All our clothes are discounted from the already discounted rack. Our furniture and appliances we use are free hand me downs. We cut our own hair. We DIY. We watch YouTube videos on minimalism to satisfy our appetite to buy things. We ate boring sandwiches everyday for lunch until it made us nauseous. etc etc.

We don’t have credit cards and we live in a one bedroom apartment.

We tell our money where to go with an extraordinary Excel budget (Erica is the Excel Queen!)

GOOD TIPS TO REMEMBER:
Know that money handling is 80% behavior and 20% head knowledge

BUDGET! Tell your money where to go instead of wondering where it went. You will save hundreds of dollars each month!

Dave Ramsey quotes, "You can get anywhere if you simply go one step at a time." Don't be discouraged and don't make excuses for yourself. You can do this even if
you have kids, have a lower income, are not married,
live in California, have more debt, etc...
It may take a little longer than you want,
but hundreds of thousands of people do the 7 baby steps and pay off their debt! You are not alone.

You cannot Daveish the plan! You gotta make sacrifices and provide boundaries for yourself.

DREAM! What would your life look like if you didn't owe any money?
