Credit Card Debt Plan - Planning Financial Freedom

Dec. 12, 2009 - PRLog -- It is difficult to begin putting money away when one is paying hundreds of dollars each month to credit card companies. Eventually the interest accrued starts to accumulate more interest and it becomes more difficult to pay the balance off.

Hector Milla Editor of the "Credit Card Debt Free" website -- http://www.CreditCardDebtFree.org -- pointed out;


“…There are steps one can take to pay off their credit cards. First, a credit card debt plan should be created. This will give you a goal to work towards. Next, stop using the cards. Cut them all up except for one that is kept for emergencies. This should be kept in a drawer though instead of a wallet. Choose one card to pay down at a time. Some experts believe you should pick the one with a smaller balance to start…”

Others feel it's better to pay off your higher cards first since they are accumulating more interest. Either way you should begin to put any extra money you can into eliminating the balance. Paying in micropayments where small amounts of cash goes toward paying off the card may help you get out of debt.

A credit card debt relief company may be the best option for some individuals with money owing problems. This type of businesses can bargain with credit card companies to reduce interest and lower monthly payments. In some cases the company can help a person declare bankruptcy as well. While this is looked at as a last resort, it may be the only way one can truly be cleared of their debt.

“…To obtain financial freedom one must pay off their credit cards, save for the future and reduce spending. By taking steps to create a credit card debt plan this goal will be easier to reach than you might believe. The key is to become proactive and begin taking the steps toward financial independence…” added H. Milla.
