  1. Bob is a friend of yours and he has tried to fallow your financial guidelines. He has made a emergency fund with One thousand dollars and three to six months of expenses. He also has started a college fund and a retirement fund. Then suddenly he is deeply in debt. How would you get him out of this debt and what did he do wrong?

  2. Bob went wrong when he skipped Baby Step number 2 - pay off all your debt except for your home.

    To get out of debt, Bob should keep on working and keep on paying his payments. This is to be his top priority. He should NOT take money out of his investments or emergency fund for this.

  6. Bob forgot about Baby Step #2. As his emergency fund and 3-6 months of expenses are in place, he needs to stop adding anything to his retirement and college funds and spend that money on his debt snowball to get out of debt.

  7. First he forgot baby step number 2… and to fix this he probably need to stop putting most of his income into the retirement and collage funds and use some of that to get out of debt first...
