Listen "Financial Independence Flowchart"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode, Cody and Justin walk listeners through the step-by-step flow of what to do with your money at each stage of your financial journey.
Using an excellent flowchart from Reddit as a starting point, we break down the full decision tree and give you our own opinions as well (even the controversial ones).
This flowchart is broken down into the following main stages:
Budgeting
Emergency Fund
Employee-Sponsored Matching funds
High-interest debt
IRAs
401k/403b/HSA
Financial Independence / Life Goals
We think this will be an episode you’ll want to revisit again and again the further you go down your journey.
