A Millenial's Guide to Getting Out of Debt
Paying of student loans, credit cards, and more. By Mark HollowayLength4h 2m
About this audiobook
You make every payment, on time, every month — and you're still not getting anywhere.
You know the feeling. The mental tab at the grocery store. The half-opened statements on the counter. You're not behind, exactly. You're just not gaining on it. And the personal finance books on the shelf were written for a different reader.
A Millennial's Guide to Getting Out of Debt is a step-by-step system for paying off what millennials actually carry: student loans, credit cards, BNPL, medical debt, car loans. It draws on behavioral economists Sendhil Mullainathan and Eldar Shafir, money psychologist Brad Klontz, and self-compassion researcher Kristin Neff — translated into a plan you can run on a tired Tuesday.
Not a memoir. Not a lecture. A modern, honest, behavior-backed system.
You can do this. The plan is in here. The rest is just time.
