Debt squeezes your finances, opportunities, health, and family relationships. It constrains, constricts, restricts and stifles. Heavy debt payments every month can leave their mark on your confidence, hopes, dreams, and your health. So how would using a debt consolidation loan solve your problems?
The most important thing you need to do is to free yourself from the strong grip of debt. While you may not be able to pay off your debts in a single hit, you can do the next best thing - consolidate your debts using one low interest debt consolidation loan. This will simplify your financial life by reducing the number of debt payments to one (apart from your mortgage) as well as reducing the size of your monthly debt payment.
By lowering interest rates and only having to make one monthly payment, you can substantially reduce your monthly debt costs. It's not uncommon to be able to halve your monthly payments this way. Depending on the size of your debt and monthly payments, this can be a considerable saving, leaving you with more money in your pocket.
Furthermore, by freeing up more of your income for family use by using a debt consolidation loan to combine debts, you can improve your lifestyle, pay off debt faster, save or invest or pay for something as important as your children's education that may have been beyond your reach.
There are many debt consolidation loan options including a home equity loan for those with adequate equity in their homes, an unsecured personal loan for those who either lack home equity or don't want to risk their homes and a low interest credit card which may suit circumstances where extra borrowing for may be necessary for expenses that haven't come in yet.
Whichever debt consolidation loan option you choose, be sure to cancel all credit cards and lines of credit once the balance has been paid off by your debt consolidation loan to avoid getting into debt again. An advantage of using a debt consolidation service or a debt counselor is that they will handle everything for you and help you to ensure you are in the best financial position for success.
Ideally, as well as organizing a debt consolidation loan, they will also help you to create a workable budget and a along term financial plan. They will also work with you to evaluate your spending habits so that you can identify problem areas and make necessary changes.
Even if you don't want to use a professional service to do these things for you, you should certainly do them for yourself. Create your own budget. There are many free budget forms available on the internet that you can download or fill in online. You can also become more educated on financial planning and begin to create a long term vision for your financial success.
A debt consolidation loan is literally your first, significant step to financial freedom and the longer you delay taking this action, the longer you will continue to suffer the debt squeeze.
