$17k in debt...to $0 here's how to do it DAY 16

Transcript

So my wife thinks we're still $17,000 in debt, but that couldn't be further from the truth. I'm not telling her anything until we hit zero. While my wife is working very hard, I'm grinding out with side hustles to secretly pay down this debt. Yesterday we had 1,230 engagements, which means I just made a payment of $6.15 into the debt payoff fund. Today is special because we are going to make shares worth 20 cents. You heard that right. I want this payment to be big. So if you're seeing this, please share in the comments today. I would love for you to tell me what your favorite restaurant is or your favorite food. If they comment back, I will add an additional $50 to the payment. Let's get these comments going. I love seeing how everyone is involved. This should be really fun. I will see y'all tomorrow for day 17.
