Personal Finance Cat ·

2022/04/30

This episode starts with the obvious, which unfortunately nowadays is not as obvious perhaps. The best way to deal with debt is to not incur it in the first place. It is still doable, even in developed countries like the U.S.! That said, Personal Finance Cat believes that good debt is still O.K., or even good, to incur, because of the power of leverage.
