Debt freedom
The first step toward financial independence: freedom from debt. The Ficks aren’t anti-debt purists. A mortgage, for instance, could be a part of a perfectly healthy financial plan, they say.

“The key thing about debt freedom is that it reduces your expenses,” says Corey. “Once you get rid of that debt, you can either save more or work less.”
