Paying down credit card debt yielding 15-28% annual interest provides a better guaranteed return than investing in the stock market, which historically averages around 10%.
"the reason why I want to do this before I think about investing my money before I think about putting my money in the stock market or doing any of that other stuff is because I know that these credit card companies if I have credit card debt is costing me 15 20 25 28% a year and interest versus the historical stock market return over the last century is something like 10% a year so now if I can work to pay down my credit card debt one year faster I'm going to get a better return than investing my money in the stock market"

Wealth building through real estate
Pending
Prioritizing cash flow investments, particularly through rental properties or dividend-paying stocks/funds, is a preferred strategy for building wealth.
"I like Investing For Cash Flow that's why the bulk of my investments are cash flow Investments so now where would I be putting this money either I'm going to use this money to go out and buy rental properties that's going to pay me with cash flow or I'm going to use this money to go out and invest in dividend paying stocks or dividend paying funds that I get to pay me with cash flow"
