I’d put it above a small emergency fund, which you need precisely to avoid bad debt. It hardly makes sense to set aside $1000 when you have $1000 in CC debt. I’d also put it above non-essential bills. That list is weird because I would consider cell phone and internet absolutely essential. But if it’s truly non-essential, like cable or a game subscription, I would cancel until I don’t have bad debt.

The employer match is actually maybe the only one I might keep, since you get an instant 100% ROI.
