Americans are carrying staggering amounts of debt by age, but how does your debt compare? Brian and Bo break down the average debt for Gen Z, Millennials, and Gen X, including credit card debt, student loans, car loans, and mortgages. More importantly, they explain which debts could derail your investing, retirement savings, emergency fund, and path to financial independence. Whether you're wondering how much debt is normal for your age, when to pay off debt vs. invest, how much car you can afford, or whether you should pay off your mortgage early, this episode gives you a framework for making smarter money decisions.
