The Table with Anthony ONeal
Stop Guessing W/ Your Money FREE Webinar: https://www.anthonyoneal.com/stopguessing
In today’s episode, I’m breaking down my updated, step-by-step paycheck routine for 2026. Whether you’re starting over, drowning in debt, or just ready to reset, this is the exact system I’d use to build real financial freedom—no hype, just structure. We’re talking about automating your bills, building margin, setting up your emergency fund, investing for your future, and paying off debt for good. I want you to enjoy your money, not just work for it.
I’ll walk you through every step, from covering your needs to building multiple streams of income, and why generosity is the secret weapon for wealth. Plus, I’ll show you how to position yourself for the biggest wealth transfer in history—so you’re not left behind.
