    Saving vs. Investing: How to Know When You’ve Saved Enough Money and What to Do Next

    Saving money matters, but at some point, keeping too much cash in the bank can work against your financial goals.  In this episode of The Table, Anthony O’Neal breaks down how much you really need in emergency savings, why inflation quietly eats away at idle cash, and what to do with the money you have above that number. He explains his three-tier emergency fund strategy, the difference between saving and building wealth, and why fear can sometimes disguise itself as financial wisdom. Anthony also opens up about his own experience hoarding cash instead of investing and why building wealth today is ultimately about creating freedom, security and a stronger legacy for your family.

    How to Pay Off Your Debt Faster: My 5-Step Plan to Become Debt Free

    Waiting to pay off debt is costing you more than you think.  In this episode of The Table, Anthony O’Neal breaks down what carrying high-interest consumer debt can cost you every year, why avoidance and shame keep people stuck, and what that same money could become if it were redirected toward building your future. He shares his five-step plan for attacking debt, including calculating your “waiting tax,” using the debt snowball, finding margin in your budget, building an emergency buffer, and setting a real debt-free deadline. Financial freedom doesn’t begin when you finally have enough money. It begins when you decide to stop waiting.
