Consolidate Credit Card Debt
What happens when you consolidate credit card debt? You get out of debt fast and save thousands of dollars in the process!
Just How Fast is Fast?
Fast is five years. Now, that might not exactly sound like lightening speed to you, but it could take you 13-20 years to pay off your credit card debt on your own, especially if you're only paying the required monthly minimum. Of course, it all depends on how much you owe and what you're interest rates are.
Now, you can consolidate credit card debt in a couple of different ways. The first way is to transfer your credit card balances to a card with a 0% introductory rate. Some of those introductory periods are getting to be a year or more, so if you're really feeling industrious and want to eliminate credit card debt in that year, simply transfer your balances to the new 0% card and divide the balance by 12. The number you come up with is how much you have to pay each month to get it paid off in a year. If you have the means to do that, it's an excellent--not to mention cheap--way to consolidate credit card debt. Think of all the money you'll save! Just make sure the card you're transferring to doesn't have an annual fee or charge balance transfer fees. If they do, your savings aren't as great.
If transferring your balances to a card with a 0% introductory rate isn't a viable way for you to consolidate credit card debt, try a credit card debt consolidation program instead. Under this program, a debt consolidation company contacts your creditors to get your interest rates and overall balances reduced. Then they combine the new, lower balances and give the total a much lower interest rate. You then make one monthly payment to the debt consolidation company, which they distribute to your creditors, and you are out of debt in five years. This is because of the reduction in interest rates. You could save thousands of dollars! Not to mention that if you consolidate credit card debt in this manner, your creditors will stop harassing you about what you owe (if that's happening now.)
