Are you feeling like your debts are overwhelming you, and you don't even know where to begin to address the problem? Don't leave debt stress to torture you for even one more day. The problem is not going away, and it will only become worse the longer it's ignored. So set about dealing with debt issues right now.Start by making a list of all your debts. You need to know where you really stand. You need to know exactly how much you owe, and who you owe it to. Don't hide anything, and don't pretend you don't owe something. Once it's all out in front of you, it may feel a bit like taking a rock out of your shoe. A lot of the stress of debt comes from denying it exists-and you've just stared your debt right in the face.Now prioritize your debts. You likely really want to pay your best friend back, and owing a friend may strain relationships, but it isn't likely going to wreck your credit. So list all your debts in order of the most important ones first. That might include your mortgage and secured loans. That's because you don't want to lose your home, or whatever you've purchased-often it's a car-using the purchase as security against the loan. Then list other debts like credit cards,...more

The risk with taking on new loans is that often, they end up costing you MORE than the loans they replace because of the term of the loan. (The other risk is that if you pay off a credit card, you're at risk for running it back up again and being worse off than you are now.)You should only consider taking on a consolidation loan if both of the following conditions apply;1 - The interest and the monthly payment on the new loan are both significantly lower than the interest and total payments on the loans/debts it replaces; AND2 - There is no penalty for paying off the consolidation loan early.If those conditions are both met, then you may be ahead by trading your existing debts for a single large one. However, to make this work, you need to pay more than the minimum on your new loan so that it doesn't end up costing you more, over the life of the loan, than you are currently paying. However, you should also know the classic way to get out of debt as quickly and inexpensively as possible:Rank all your existing debts -- your credit cards, student loan, car loan (if any), etc. -- according to their interest rates, with the highest rate as #1. That's your most expensive debt. (As an...more
