CHAPTER TWO

A DEBT PRIMER

YOU WILL NEVER BE A FINANCIAL GROWNUP if you have bad debt. Bad debt is anything that keeps you from being financially free. The most common is credit card debt. Student debt can also weigh down your life.

But there’s also debt that can be used to give you financial freedom. Having a mortgage is often the most realistic way to own a home, which can provide financial stability. Most of us need to borrow to buy a car. Knowing the difference between good and bad debt, and how to manage both, is essential to being a financial grownup.
