Avalanche vs. Snowball vs Snowflake: Choosing Your Debt Strategy
We’ve all heard about the avalanche, the snowball, and maybe even the snowflake method for paying off debt… but which one actually works best in real life?
In this episode, Jonathan and Amanda go back to their own story of paying off about $25,000 of debt in just 7.5 months and break down the three major debt payoff strategies—what they promise, where they fall short, and why the method you choose matters more than you think.
You’ll hear:
❄️ Debt Avalanche – the mathematically “optimal” approach that often fails real human behavior
❄️ Debt Snowflake/Flurry – lots of motion, not much progress
❄️ Debt Snowball – the method they used, and why those early wins were crucial
Plus how they now teach a deeper, more strategic version called Stack & Attack inside the Catholic Money Academy.
If you’re feeling overwhelmed, ashamed, or just stuck with your debt, this episode will help you choose a strategy you’ll actually stick with—so you can finally make the progress you’ve been praying for.
