63% percent of Americans say they’re living paycheck to paycheck. Among households that make $100-250k, 41% of them are saying the same thing. So we’re here to ask, do they have a money problem?

My guest today is a best selling author who has helped over 250,000 people set a path towards a debt-free life. In 2021, Anthony O'Neal left the Dave Ramsey financial advice powerhouse to build his own platform. And his new book, Stop Living Paycheck to Paycheck — there it is again.

Today, he tells me

• Why more money won't fix your finances if you don’t have an actual plan for it

• Why you should build a buffer before you touch a single dollar of debt

• The Debt Snowball Method, and why he says it's about momentum, not math

• Why he now calls a credit score a tool, not a trap, and how that went over with his audience

• Why people don’t have a money problem, they have a clarity problem
