How to get out of debt... and stay that way Debt can quickly sneak up on a person. However, it can take much longer — some- times decades — to get out of debt. And that's a big con- cern when considering just how much debt the average person has incurred. Northwestern Mutu- al's 2018 Planning & Prog- ress Study says the aver- age American has about $ 38,000 in personal debt, excluding home mortgag- es. A survey from the insol- vency firm MNP Ltd. found that 31 percent of Canadians do not make enough to cov- er their bills and 46 percent are a mere $200 or less away from failing to pay debts at month's end. Researchers in the Unit- ed Kingdom analyzed data from 1.4 million credit card holders and found that peo- ple typically choose ineffec- tive methods to paying off debt. These tips can make it easier to get rid of debt. STOP THE FLOOD Avoid new debt at all costs. Stop using credit cards, cease taking loans, do not buy any big-ticket items, and scale back on general purchases. LEARN ABOUT AVALANCHES AND SNOWBALLS The avalanche method is a way to pay off debt. Ac- cording to NerdWallet, a popular online financial re- source, the debt avalanche approach encourages debt- ors to pay off debts with the highest interest rates first. That seems like an effective way to get out of debt quick- ly. However, in a 2016 in- vestigation for the Harvard Business Review, research- ers found that the snowball method, which prioritizes paying off the smallest debt balance first and then mov- ing on as debt amounts in- crease, is the most effective strategy. It tends to have the most powerful effect on people's sense of progress because they gain momen- tum by watching debts dis- appear. CUT BACK TEMPORARILY Cut back nonessential spending, such as cable sub- scriptions or gym member- ships for the time being. Re- purpose that extra money to pay off existing debt. GET A LOWER INTEREST RATE Customers can call cus- tomer service centers to see if they can lower debt by ne- gotiating a better interest rate, says Credit.com. Since much of a credit card pay- ment goes toward monthly interest charges and not to- ward the actual balance, this can be a way to get a handle on debt. Some people prefer to use a balance transfer to get a lower rate on another card and try to pay off the balance before the promo- tional rate expires. CONSOLIDATE OR SETTLE When debt is so substan- tial that debtors cannot see the light at the end of the tunnel, they might ask a creditor to accept a one- time, lump sum payment to satisfy the debt. Debt con- solidation companies also can help by negotiating with creditors and streamlining debt into one payment per month instead of many. With an effective plan in place, people in debt often can dig themselves out of fi- nancial peril. Pregnant... or think you are?
