3 Tips For Managing Your Debt
No matter how much money you throw at your debt, does it seem like it never goes down? Here’s what you can do.
1. Start with a map. Figure out how much you owe, to whom you owe it, at what interest rate you’re paying it back, plus any other fees, penalties or costs that go with any of your debts. If you need help figuring all of this out, let us know. We’ve got professionals who can help you find what you need. Meanwhile, review your credit report so you know what the credit agencies think you owe. Don’t forget to challenge anything on your report that appears fraudulent or inaccurate.
2. Lower your interest rate, even if it raises your payments. You can lower your interest payments by moving chunks of your debt from high-interest plans to lower-interest plans. One way to do this is to move credit card debt from one card to another, so your largest balances are at the lowest rates. Check out our Visa® Signature Rewards or Visa® Platinum credit card. Another way to do this is to get a new loan. For example, our home equity loans have lower rates than most major credit cards because you have collateral to help secure the loan and we redistribute our revenues back to our members in the form of lower rates rather than giving our profits to shareholders and bonuses for top-level executives.
