Imagine having over six figures worth of debt.

How would you feel? Likely overwhelmed. Sometimes so overwhelemed you don’t even think you can pay off debt.

Well, today’s guest Brian Brandow, not only felt like he could pay off debt- he did.

Brian is the person behind DebtDiscipline.com. Brian is a husband, father of three, and passionate about making his family’s future financially respectable. Brian started his blog as a way of holding himself accountable and sharing his money journey. Brian’s journey to rock bottom really ended when he his family had to say no to a yearly family vacation. That’s when he realized something had to change. Since then he has paid off $109,000 in 50 months.

In this episode we talk about climbing out of rock bottom, how he helps others with their own financial lives, how his wife was in a serious car accident and how their financial life was able to help them through this tough time, the things he teaches his kids today about money, and even a look inside the day-to-day life in his household.
