Breaking Free Of Credit Card Debt

If the endless cycle of paying down your credit card debt a teensy-weensy bit every month

, and then adding on a new ginormous debt next month is beginning to wear you down, it's time to take steps today to break free and really handle your credit card debt once and for all.

Managing credit well is a matter of education and practice. Unfortunately, nobody teaches us how to use our credit wisely, and once we get up to our necks in bad debt, we've also fallen into all kinds of bad habits that are really hard to break. But not impossible. Take just a few smart steps to handle your credit debt, and put a few good practices into place, and your debt will go down, stay down, and eventually disappear altogether, and you'll feel a whole lot better about yourself and your life.

The best advice if credit card mismanagement is a plague in your life is to cut up your cards. But sometimes cutting those cards up doesn't mean charges aren't still accruing each month because of automatic payments that you may have put on the card. So, you also need to figure out how many automatic payments come off your credit card every month. How many magazines or itunes? Internet payments? Cell phone contracts? Other ongoing monthly purchases?

These payments can quickly add up to hundreds of dollars each month if you're not paying attention-and the problem is, it's too easy to ignore automatic credit card charges. If you can, cancel all of them. If you cannot, get them transferred off your credit card and into your chequing account. If you can't do that, at least get all those payments on to one credit card that you can track each month.

Knowing what your payments are is a key factor in reducing debt. If you feel like you have bills coming at you from every direction at all times of the month, you can consolidate these with one loan. It might be better-even if it costs you a bit more-to have one bill to pay each month. That's because if you pay off all those other debts that you've let slide for too many months, spot-paid every few months, or have outright defaulted on, your credit immediately improves. And it might be worth a few extra dollars to get your credit back on track, and you back in control of your life.

A car title loan can help you do this. It's a loan you take out against your car, if it's less than eight years old and you own it. It's especially good because it's a loan that can also help you rebuild your credit; first, by paying off all those other bad debts, and second, by showing a good loan on your credit score.

Consider a car title loan. It's easy to apply online. And it may teach you what no one else has-how to use credit wisely
