Do you realize your credit score? You should. A credit score can decide your qualification for the nuts and bolts of life. Your credit rating influences your capacity to buy a home, land a decent financing cost on advances, and even find a new line of work. It speaks to the danger of non-installment that you present to a moneylender.

If you want to reach your financial goals, you need to find out which financial activities hurt your budget.

Story
Debt is an issue that thousands of people struggle with each year. Large bills like mortgage payments, medical bills, and student loans can be a significant drain on your wallet, but an even larger problem is credit card debt. Since credit cards have such high interest rates on average, overspending and continually missing payments will quickly multiply even small bills into nearly insurmountable ones.

Story
Investing in your future is easier than you think—discover how and achieve financial security more quickly than you can possibly imagine. Young adults are especially financially vulnerable because they’re just starting out, want a lot of “stuff,” and are not earning the big bucks yet. So, they’re borrowing too much and saving too little (if at all), and they’re in a financial mess. But it doesn’t have to be like that. Instead, imagine a life where you have peace of mind, because your financial affairs are in order, and you’re on the right path to building wealth.

Story
Have you ever been overwhelmed with the desire to possess something the first time you laid eyes on it? Money should never control you; it should be the other way around. If you control your money, you won’t be living the kind of life reminiscent of a millionaire, but you save yourself from stress, worry, and debt. Financial control means that before you even touch your money, you know where it’s supposed to go, how you’re supposed to spend it, and when you’ll spend it. This is where budget comes in.

Story
Everyone has an opportunity to grow their money and get out of debt, but you must start to make this a reality. Be warned, though, when your income starts to grow, it is easy to fall into temptation and start spending more than you are earning again. Refrain and continue saving and investing your money. Every small step counts. Every coin kept and invested counts. If you use the profit you make, you will be unable to grow your wealth...With time, you will have a venture that can not only buy you whatever you want but one that will continue to grow over the years.

Should be required reading!
As usual, Laura has taken a massive amount of complex information and parsed it into an easy to understand, step by step process. This book is not only a must for anyone who would like to get out of debt, but it's even for those who are financially stable but would like to improve their financial situation. And it's not just about the financial steps that need to be taken. It also includes the mindset changes and microhabits we need to further stabilize the foundation of our financial futures. Well done Laura!

Laura Adams has been giving great financial advice for a long time. Here she lays out a straight forward plan to get out of debt. It is also not a one size fits all because the first rule of personal finance is that it is personal. She shows the multiple routes to the finish line. Anyone looking to get out of debt should read this book.

Comprehensive Yet Easy to Digest
If you like the Money Girl podcasts, you'll enjoy this book. It sounds like a compilation of her podcasts, all of them covering various forms of debt and how to deal with it. It is thorough - so much so that a lot of it doesn't apply to me now, such as when she discusses mortgages. I will have to listen again in the future when I encounter those debt situations. She speaks clearly without the use of jargon. When she does occasionally throw jargon around, she explains it in a way that doesn't make you feel stupid. All in all, I recommend this audio book (at least at 1.25x speed) to anyone who has any form of debt. You might find yourself learning a little or a lot but learning nevertheless.
