How long would it take to pay off $141,000 in debt?
How would you do it? What would you do first?
Is it okay to invest while still in debt?
This week's guest is Amanda Sharratt. Amanda and her husband found themselves in over $141,000 in debt from student loans, credit cards, and other obligations, and they PAID IT OFF in THREE YEARS!! In this week's episode, we talk about how they got into debt, and how they got out of it (spoiler, without filing bankruptcy).
At the time of our interview, Amanda was COO and a Financial Advisor with Whitaker-Myers Wealth Managers, Ltd. As of the time we posted this episode, she is no longer with that company.

And, if you want to become debt free, visit Shawn's Money Max Account affiliate link: https://www.moneymaxaccount.com/yesner
Can you become debt free with just a few hundred dollars left at the end of the month?
If you could eliminate the payment of interest, would that help you to be debt free?
Would you want to be out of debt in five to ten years?
How is the payment of debt more like a GPS than a paper map?
This week, Shawn & George talk to Brian Nates and Tammy Gardner about the Money Max Account system of paying off debt sooner, therefore savings tens of thousands, or hundreds of thousands of dollars in interest! The Money Max Account is a way to tangibly predict when you will be debt free by following the system, but more important it will also tell you the financial impact of various purchases, like:
Brian has been in the financial industry for 18 years. He is the owner of Nates Financial Group, LLC, a coach & mentor to over 2,000 agents and an "outside the box" thinker in Financial Services, Business Development and Product Development. Brian is driven to educate, consult and be involved with programs that make a real tangible impact for people and the community as a whole.
Tammy lives in Clearwater, Florida (home of the Crushing Debt Podcast), and was an Economics major in College at the University of New Mexico. Tammy spent 35 years in the lending industry, initially as a Mortgage loan officer, then spent 10 years behind the scenes in loan servicing, audits and compliance. About 10 years ago, after seeing how the lending industry is truly set up for the banks to win at the expense of consumers, Tammy became a financial advisor. She is passionate about empowering individuals and businesses to make informed financial decisions that put their money to work for them, rather than the banks!
Shawn was so impressed by the Money Max Account, that we signed up as an Affiliate of the system, which Shawn has also signed up for to truly become debt free (including mortgages and car payments).

What are the signs that you might need some financial help?
What are some things to look for or listen for to determine whether you might want to talk to a financial coach? Signs that you might need to seek legal counsel?
On this week's episode of the Crushing Debt Podcast, George and Shawn talk about the various signs that someone might need help, or might be in trouble financially.
There are some common signs, like living paycheck to paycheck.
There are some signs that suggest you may need some coaching or accountability, like help creating a budget, being on the "hamster wheel," avoiding your mail, using cards for necessities, and feeling like you need to "keep up with the Joneses."
There are some signs that you need to seek out legal counsel, like getting sued, getting calls from creditors, bouncing checks or overdrawing your account, or an inability to pay for necessities.

What are some financial stressors out there?
What triggers your financial stress?
What is Surge Pricing? Dynamic Pricing?
In this week's episode, Shawn & George talk about the various things that can cause financial stress. Situations like: bankruptcy & foreclosure, job loss, reduced work hours or income, lack of savings, debt, health care costs, separation or divorce, the loss of a spouse, taxes, food and living expenses, and housing expenses among others.
Did we miss any? What are some of your financial stressors and how do you deal with them?
Then, we talk about surge pricing or dynamic pricing - something that theme parks, airlines and uber have been doing for years. When the price of something increases during peak usage time, and decreases during non-peak usage time, that's surge pricing. Blackout dates are another good example of surge pricing. Recently, Wendy's announced (and then recanted) that they were going to implement surge pricing. Imagine a cheeseburger being more expensive during lunch than at 3 in the afternoon. Or image junk food being more expensive late at night than early in the morning.

If you have adult kids living with you, do you charge them rent?
If you are living with your parents, do you pay or contribute to household expenses?
Do you support your friends or family financially?
Are you a part of the sandwich generation?
This week, George and Shawn tackle the topic of contributing to household expenses. Nearly 1/3 of 18 - 34 year olds are living at home with mom and dad, and nearly 3/4 of them are contributing financially, according to an article on Yahoo.com - https://finance.yahoo.com/news/sure-hope-won-t-let-120000054.html
In addition, more than 20% of all americans are relying on friends or family for additional support - https://finance.yahoo.com/news/over-1-5-americans-counting-173000561.html
We talk about why these numbers are relevant, as well as when you should start talking to your kids about money, and about contributing to the household.

What are the signs of financial anxiety?
How does financial anxiety affect you?
How can you handle financial anxiety?
We apologize for the audio quality of last week's episode. Apparently, taking a month hiatus also impacted our recording equipment! That issue has been fixed, and the quality of Shawn's voice this week is all mother nature's fault. George takes the lead this week, talking about financial anxiety, and how to recognize it and address it.
One of the more important factors in financial anxiety is to understand that you're not alone, nor unique. Many people have been through financial stress or anxiety and resolved their issues - you can too!

How do you manage your feeling about money?
How do you manage your habits around spending, saving, or investing money?
How do you speak with your family and other relationships about money?
This week, George and Shawn talk to Maggie Baker, PhD, a practicing psychotherapy for 30 years, who is passionate about helping folks put their minds at ease during stressful financial situations. Dr. Baker knows exactly what it is like from first hand experience, being crippled in the 2000 stock market crash. As a result, she transformed her practice into helping folks in similar situations understand and change their feelings and behavior about money, so that they can get back to living a fulfilled life and enjoy the money they have.
Dr. Maggie's book, Crazy About Money Crazy helps readers identify the unconscious emotions and beliefs that usually come from childhood and drive money decisions as adults. It also shows readers how to change misguided attitudes that lead so many into money trouble.

Do you have your financial house in order?
Did you know that men and women view and treat money very differently?
Have you been on a Money Date or planned a Money Party?

This week Shawn (solo, George is back next week) has Cassandra Smalley, a Certified Financial Planner, holder of the Chartered Financial Analyst designation, owner of Cassandra Smalley Wealth Managment, and author of the book "The Why of Wealth."
Cassandra and Shawn talk about why women need a seat at the financial table, planning a money party, college planning, how to handle a financial windfall, and what happens when the unthinkable happens.
You can connect with Cassandra at her website, www.CassandraSmalley.com. Cassandra has a ton of information and free resources at her website.
