When left unchecked, debt can pose a real problem to Financial Independence. Poor credit scores, insecurity, and even debt collectors can become a reality before you know it. Even so, debt emergencies don't need to spell the end of your FIRE dreams. With a structured approach and some budgeting know-how, you can extinguish your debt fire and focus on your fun FIRE.
In this chapter, Kylie Travers from The Thrifty Issue details how to deal with debt collectors. She also shares a comprehensive checklist that can help you clear your debt and focus on your goals.
