What are you going to do first to become debt free?

After watching this course, I have started my own net worth statement. This statement has helped me visualize a few places where I can cut down on my liabilities, which will in turn increase my net worth. My next step is to classify my debt. I feel like I'm finally on my way to being in control of my finances again!
