23-year-old with 23 X 3 in debt

[JFisher29]

Hello everyone,

I have read the Millionaire Fastlane and my entire worldview has shifted.

I am 23 years old and living in Minneapolis with around 70k in student debt. I currently work in corporate finance with a salary of 75k; this will never give me freedom. I am currently laying the seeds of thought for my future fastlane business so I can earn asymmetrically.

My question to all of you is this, how should I think about my debt? I have advice coming from every direction about how to handle my wealth. My dad loves Ramsey and says to throw everything at it and save as much as I can, the slowlane. I am making $800 monthly payments, and my minimum payment would be around $200. How should I balance my debt with wanting to save funds for entrepreneurial ventures? How much is a realistic amount to save for a first swing?

I believe that the entirety of our experiences and actions as people are downstream from our mindsets, so what mindset should I have about my debt? (Of course, practical tips would be appreciated too.)

Take care everyone,

J
