Imagine earning six figures\u2026but being broke. Earning over $100,000\u2026but facing the same amount in credit card debt.This is where the story of Brian Brandow begins. When trying to book a family vacation back in 2010, Brian says he hit a wall. All of his five credit cards were maxed out and he had no available cash. At the time he was making a great salary of $120,000 as an IT manager \u2013 more than enough to afford a vacation \u2013\xa0and he quickly realized he and his wife needed to make a change. They were living far beyond their means, and had accumulated a whopping $109,000 in debt.So Brian and his wife set out to take control of their finances and their journey t tp financial freedom began. Brian educated himself on personal finance, his wife went back to work to bring in extra income, and they were able to clear the debt in just over 50 months or 4 years. Without having to worry about paying off debt, they now are able to contribute to an emergency fund, retirement savings and college funds for their three kids.Today, Brian\u2019s goal is to help others in similar situations through his blog\xa0Debt Discipline, and personal coaching sessions, where he teaches budgeting and getting on the right financial track.
