Acknowledgments & Thank You’s!
I would be remiss if I didn’t thank my wife for dealing with my ever changing mindset while helping keep me fixated on the ultimate goals. My wife has been by my side during my early debt payoff journey, and was the natural frugal one that kept us on course in the early years before discovering there is more beyond being debt free and saving 10-15% and upgrading your lifestyle with future raises. She’s a trooper, and never has made me feel like a failure when something hasn’t gone as planned.
I must thank my son, he was the catalyst that pushed me over the edge to give in and write something. We need something powerful in life to induce change.
If something were to happen to me, it is great to know that we’ve gotten this far and he can see that path and learn from it. Thanks bud man, you make me want to drive harder day in and day out.
Finally I must thank and bullet point and thank some heavy hitters in the Financial Independence Community, without your platforms I may have never gotten on this aggressive path. In no particular order, many thanks to these big names.
