    Side Hustles, Debt & Danger: How to Make Extra Money Without Going Broke

    Is your side hustle really helping you get out of debt—or quietly dragging you deeper in? In this episode, Steve Rhode, the old, original Get Out of Debt Guy, and the new Get Out of Debt Guy, Damon Day, break down the truth about side hustles, gig work, and those “make money from home” dreams that can turn into financial nightmares. Steve and Damon talk about the two very different worlds of side hustles: simple, cash-flow gigs like Uber, Lyft, DoorDash, Instacart and Walmart Spark… and the “business opportunity” side hustles like Amazon FBA, drop shipping, and guru-led online courses that can leave you with more credit card debt than profit. Steve shares his real Amazon FBA experience (including starting with $20–25k in inventory and building it into a serious business), while Damon explains how he consistently earns around $40/hour in the gig economy by stacking apps, knowing his market, and refusing unprofitable rides. They dig into: Why so many people go into debt “trying” to get out of debt with side hustles The danger of high-priced “done-for-you” websites and Amazon stores Profit vs. revenue (and why a $15, 30-mile ride can actually lose you money) How to think about car costs, IRS mileage, taxes, and 1099 contractor reality When it’s smarter to drive Lyft or do Instacart than to swipe a card for another course How to test your market for 60–90 days and know when it’s time to pivot If you’re thinking about starting a side hustle to pay off credit cards, avoid bankruptcy, or just keep up with inflation, this episode will help you avoid the emotional traps, slick marketing, and bad math that can wreck your finances.

  2. The Hidden Traps in Debt Relief Ads You’re Seeing Right Now

    The Hidden Traps in Debt Relief Ads You’re Seeing Right Now

    Every time you open TikTok, Instagram, or Facebook, there’s another slick “debt relief” ad chasing you around. Secret government programs. Guaranteed 80% reduction. Gurus in rented Lamborghinis who “paid off $80,000 in six months.” In this episode, Steve Rhode—the old, authentic, original Get Out of Debt Guy—and the new Get Out of Debt Guy, Damon Day, pull back the curtain on the hidden traps in debt relief marketing you’re being targeted with right now. Steve and Damon deconstruct real-world tactics used in debt relief ads and social media videos: fake government program language, illegal upfront fees, emotional scare tactics about wage garnishment, phony “last chance” deadlines, and TikTok/Instagram influencers quietly getting paid to push risky debt settlement programs. You’ll hear how marketers weaponize fear, shame, and hope to sell credit card debt relief, student loan help, and consolidation plans that often leave people worse off. You’ll also learn how to tell the difference between a legitimate option—like nonprofit credit counseling, real debt settlement, or bankruptcy—and a high-pressure sales funnel disguised as financial advice. If you’ve ever wondered whether that “new 2025 federal debt relief program” in your feed is real or just another scam, this episode will show you exactly what to look for before you click, call, or hand over your bank info.

    The 50-Year Mortgage Trap, Money Saving Grocery Hacks & A Meaty Mamma Comeback

    In this episode of The Get Out of Debt Guy Podcast, Steve Rhode — the original Get Out of Debt Guy — and co-host Damon Day dig into two big money topics you’ll want to hear. First, they tackle the controversial idea of a 50-year mortgage, explaining how a slightly smaller monthly payment could actually cost homeowners hundreds of thousands more over time — and why a 50-year adjustable-rate mortgage could be financial quicksand. Then, they pivot from long-term debt to day-to-day savings, showing how you can use ChatGPT to shrink your grocery budget by turning what’s already in your kitchen into real meal plans. Plus, an entertaining Meaty Mamma update—because personal finance doesn’t always have to be serious to be smart. Links: 💡 Read more at GetOutOfDebt.org 🎙 Connect with Damon at DamonDay.com

    Debt Settlement - Should You Take That Credit-Card Settlement? Credit Score, Taxes (1099-C), and Smart Strategy

    Steve Rhode — the original Get Out of Debt Guy — and Damon Day — the new Get Out of Debt Guy — break down the real-world pros and cons of accepting a credit-card debt settlement. We explain why banks won’t deal early but suddenly send settlement letters before charge-off, how “settled for less than full balance” impacts your credit report, and what the IRS does with forgiven debt (hello, 1099-C). We also demystify IRS Form 982 (insolvency) — when it can eliminate income taxes on canceled debt, and why you might owe taxes once you’re no longer insolvent. Plus: timing mistakes to avoid, when bankruptcy may be cleaner than multi-year settlements, and how to build a plan that wins the war—not just one battle.
