About this audiobook
GOODBYE DEBT-HELLO FREEDOM!
Most of us grew up with the idea that there is good debt and there is bad debt. Good debts are generally considered to be debts you incur to buy things that can go up in value-like a home or college education. Bad debts are things like credit card balances, where you borrowed money to buy things that depreciate or go down in value, like most consumer goods.
But as America's favorite financial coach, David Bach, points out, in difficult times there is no such thing as good debt. There is only debt. And all debt is too expensive-if what you desire is FREEDOM! In fact, Bach believes the best investment you can make today is to pay down your debt, faster and smarter than you have ever attempted before-starting today!
In Debt Free for Life, #1 New York Times bestselling author David Bach has written his most groundbreaking and important book since The Automatic Millionaire, giving us the knowledge, the tools, and the mindset we need to get out of debt and achieve financial freedom- forever! Offering a revolutionary approach to personal finance that teaches you how to pay down your debt and adopt a whole new way of living - debt free. Bach unveils the Debt Wise program that empowers you to pare down your debt automatically. You'll learn how to calculate your Debt Freedom Day - the actual date you will be completely free of debt. And you'll discover that when you are debt free, you need a lot less money to live on. You can retire, even with a smaller nest egg -- perhaps earlier than you expected.
David Bach has coached millions to pay off their debt and now he can guide you. Whether you have home loans, student loans, car loans, credit card debt-paying down your debt is truly a game you can win, if you know the rules. Debt Free for Life will teach you the rules and give you the tools to buy back your freedom.

19 ratings2 reviews
- Rating: 2 out of 5 stars2/5Rating: 2.5 of 5There's *not* a lot of new information if you've read any other financial expert's books, especially David Bach's. But there were a few tips that I didn't know about, such as the ability to request a lower interest rate on your credit card from the issuer. And the brief overview of how much faster one's mortgage can be paid off was helpful as well. Those two points though left me needing a bit more analysis and explanation, which I sought online.I did sign up and try out the Debt Wise system that Bach advertised throughout the book. It would probably be most helpful for those individuals who do not maintain "clean" books in financial software already. I'm a bookkeeper by day so much of the information presented in this book was common knowledge. I cancelled after the free trial period.
- Rating: 4 out of 5 stars4/5David Bach walks you through easy ways to pay down your debt so you won't have that worry hanging over. He points out ways people have fallen into the trap "I need this!", when actually we don't. He shows how belt tightening can actually lead to wonderful new experiences that are free. Also, how forgoing a habit, Starbucks, can save you more than $100 a month that you can use to pay down a bill. He explains how paying just $25 extra dollars a month on your car can cut months off the length of your car loan and so on and so on. An excellent book for those people who are serious about getting out of debt.
