Here's the big news - Rich started a NEW YouTube channel. With schools canceled and a government mandate to stay indoors, Rich decided to share his passion and knowledge about all things personal finance--money management, retirement, entrepreneurship, side hustles, real estate, and overall how to plan for a happy and healthy life. SUBSCRIBE to the YouTube channel HERE -- Here are the best balance transfer and 0% APR credits cards right now - and a breakdown of how each could help you to optimize spending and pay down debt. Enjoy! My links for each credit card: #1 - Best Balance Transfer Cards - https://teachingmillionaires.com/recommends/best-balance-transfer-cards #2 - AMEX Everyday Card - https://teachingmillionaires.com/recommends/amex-everyday-credit-card #3 - Discover It Card - https://teachingmillionaires.com/recommends/discover-it #4 - Chase Freedom Unlimited Card - https://teachingmillionaires.com/recommends/cs-freedom-unlimited Finally, keep in mind that it's important to PAY OFF high interest credit card debt, and I never recommend carrying a monthly balance. Still, 0% APR balance transfer offers are a smart strategy for paying down debt while avoiding high interest rates.
