Getting Out Of Debt And Control Of Your Life

Debt chokes the ability for you to prosper and have a financial future, and until you deal with the problem you will never be free. Do you ever think about the amount of credit cards you own, and then think about the amount of interest you are paying on those credit cards every month? I bet it is a staggering figure. Most people dont even think about it because they dont want to know how bad they are hurting financially.

When, I first started to look at my debt and made a decision that I wanted to be debt free it looked almost impossible. I was paying anywhere from $300-$400 a month in interest and did not know how I was going to pay of the maxed out balances on my credit cards, and then one day I found a radio show that talked about how to get debt free. The host of the show said you knock out your smallest debts first, and then move up the latter until you tackle you big debts like a student loan or car note.

This made perfect since to me so I bought his book, and stop spending more than I made, and even found myself leaving on a budget. Then, I started paying debts, and am almost debt free, and I can tell you that if I had not done this, I would not be able to pay my bills today.

When you are debt free you have all that cash you pay out every month to the credit card companies to build wealth with. This means you invest in real estate or mutual funds, and then you let your money make you money.

Dont let you children be left with you debts and no inheritance. Now is the time to start to work to pay downs those debts, build and emergency fund, and invest for the future. When you do this you are also securing a future for you family, and go have peace that you family is financially secure for the future.

Getting out of debt is the best thing you can do to secure your financial future, but you have to sacrifice, and live on less than you make, eat at home, and even pass up some vacations, but at the end of the day it is worth every bite of the sacrifice, dedication, and time you put into it, because now you are free and in charge of your finance destiny.
