Summary

Deacon and his wife combined finances shortly after marriage – only to find $52,000 in consumer debt was weighing them down. They made the choice – and a plan – to pay down that debt in 18 month.

Moving past debt freedom, Deacon began focusing on complete financial independence.

In his book, “You Can Retire Early!: Everything You Need to Achieve Financial Independence When You Want It” he describes the three ways to financial independence:

  • Real estate
  • Stock market
  • Entrepreneurship

Listen in as Deacon shares each way and how it can help you achieve financial independence.
