How to fix financial mistakes

Most content you consume regarding personal finance can be summed up by one sentence.

Spend less than you make.

There are over 200 million adults in the United States and I’d argue that most of them would say this exact sentence.

People, myself included, make mistakes, tragedy strikes, bad things happen. I’ll name a few.

  • A 35 year old that hasn’t saved for retirement.
  • A 55 year old who gets laid off, and takes 1 year to find a new job.
  • A 19 year old on track to graduate college with $150k in student loans
  • A 45 year old, saving 4% of their income, taking out a loan for a $25k recreational vehicle.

They find themselves in a hole that they need to dig out of.

So what’s the solution.

First, get help.

Second, execute where you can.

Third, win bigger.

It can take years to fix bad financial problems, it’s just the way it is.

And if you currently out of financial problems, stay that way, you only need to become wealthy once.
