Carrying credit card balances with high interest rates and making multiple payments to various debts costs you money.
For example, if you are carrying a credit card balance of $8,000 at 18.9%,
you could save up to $952 a year
if you consolidate that debt into a 7%† loan.
Here are some tips to help you reduce your debt and save:
-
Develop a budget with realistic wants and not just your needs. It's easier to stick with a plan that gives you some rewards and incentives.
-
Leave room in your budget for the odd big surprise.
-
Reduce your number of credit cards to make it easier to track your spending.
-
Set up a loan with regular monthly payments to reduce revolving debt.
-
Pay down the debt with the highest rate first and consolidate at a lower rate.
-
Use money from a debt you've paid down to start a savings program.
-
Don't fall into the temptation to start another debt after you consolidate. It could leave you in worse shape than when you started.
