What is the best way to become debt free?

Bankruptcy is an obvious method to escape debt, though it carries its own associated problems. The main alternative is to pay off the debt, which can be slow. One attempting this should always pay off debts with the highest interest first, and pay as much as possible immediately. As a debt persists, interest continues to be paid, which ultimately increases the total amount spent. So pay off the debt as soon as possible to minimize total interest payments.

How do debt consolidation services work?

Most debt consolidation services work by consolidating your debt into one loan. The debt consolidation service will pay off all of your debt balances and then make a loan to you for the amount of your debt plus any service fees. Normally the consolidated loan will have a lower interest rate than your previous debt balances.


Can you provide an example of how to refinance debt effectively?

Refinancing debt effectively involves obtaining a new loan with better terms to pay off existing debt. For example, if you have a high-interest credit card debt, you could refinance it by taking out a lower-interest personal loan to pay off the credit card balance. This can help save money on interest payments and simplify your debt repayment.


Do you pay off lower interest debt first or higher ones?

You should pay off the higher interest debt first plainly because they will cost you more money if you payed of the lower interest debt first. Another thing to take into account is how large the debt is because if that is the case then you should pay off the larger debt. :) It would make sense to pay of the higher interest debts before the lower ones. That could save you a lot of money. A credit card loan of 20.000 mounts up to roughly 50.000 in less than five years if not payed down on. This is mainly due to a very high interest rate. often 21-24%, sometimes even more. If being able to convert it to a low interest loan in a bank, say of 4%, then it would only mount up to 25.000 in the same time. It makes sense to me to rather have to pay 25.000 than 50.000 regards.

What are the best debt consolidation programs?

With a debt consolidation loan, a company fronts you the money to pay off your debt (or a portion of your debt), so then your monthly debt payments get streamlined into the one loan payment. Your debt consolidation loan ideally has a lower interest rate so you can save on interest as you pay it off.
