SFP 009: How to Pay Off Your Credit Card Debt Fast

In today’s episode of the Stumble Forward Podcast I talk about a unique way to pay off your credit card debt in a much faster way.

Today the average american carries roughly $15,000 of credit card debt and what’s worse is most of us struggle to get this debt paid off, often times taking us years to do.
