    Escape the Debt Graveyard

    What is Zombie Debt? How do you resurrect your finances after debt rises from the grave? How do you protect yourself from old debt? What happens when debt expires? Happy Halloween!!  Debt doesn't have to be scary, but debt that resurrects itself can be.  What is more scary than debt is burying your head or ignoring your debt.  In the State of Florida, debt is valid for 20 years from the time a judgment is entered (and we have seen one or two cases where the creditor filed to extend the debt beyond it's 20-year life). In some cases, creditors are trying to collect debt that has been discharged in bankruptcy, that has been expired, or that is beyond the statute of limitations. What can someone do in a scenario like this?  How can you protect yourself? That's the subject of today's podcast episode.

    Meet Henry and his Friends

    Who is H.E.N.R.Y.? Who is his friend A.L.I.C.E.? What are some signs that you might be dealing with a H.E.N.R.Y.? In 2003, Shawn Tully wrote an article for Fortune Magazine introducing us to H.E.N.R.Y. - High Earner Not Rich Yet.  This is someone who makes between $250,000 and $500,000 per year, but because of taxes, housing and family costs, basically lives paycheck to paycheck.  In this week's episode, George and Shawn talk about H.E.N.R.Y. and his friends, A.L.I.C.E. (Asset Limited, Income Constrained, Employed) and D.I.N.K. (Dual Income, No Kids). What are the pros and cons of being H.E.N.R.Y.? How can you break the cycle to become rich and stop being H.E.N.R.Y.? How can you climb out of the hole if you're A.L.I.C.E.?

    What is Financial Coaching?

    George has been a co-host of the show for more than two years, but what the heck does he do? We know what a swing coach would do in golf, what a pitching coach would do in baseball, what a QB coach would do in football, even what a business coach would do for a business owner, but what does a financial coach do? On this week's episode Shawn & George discuss Financial Coaching. What it is and what financial coaches do for their clients, which is basically: Establishing good habits around money, or helping to identify bad money habits; Accountability; Financial literacy; Identifying your "why" around money; and Motivating you. When you step back and look, this is what any coach would do on any subject, really.  We also talk about how to choose a financial coach, and what things you should look for in a financial coach.
