Welcome to Debt Freedom Stories, where the punchline is always a 6-digit number with a decimal point
Meet Bob
Bob was a responsible adult with a 401k and a mortgage, but after one fateful night at the slots, he won enough money to pay off his entire debt. Problem is, he also won enough to buy a private island, where he now lives in exile, surrounded by piña coladas and regret.
Meet Jane
Jane was a struggling artist with a passion for artisanal coffee and bespoke furniture. She managed to pay off her debt by selling her collection of hand-painted, one-of-a-kind coffee cups on Etsy, but not before she got a 3am phone call from her bank, asking her to pay off her credit card balance in full, with interest, by the end of the week.
Meet Chuck
Chuck was a professional cage fighter with a penchant for bespoke suits and a love for the finer things in life. He managed to pay off his debt by selling his championship belt to a collector in Dubai, but not before he got a visit from a mysterious stranger, asking him to fight one more match for the sake of science.
