Debt Elimination
Maybe it was all those years of shopping. Or the mounting medical bills from your illness. Whatever the reasons, you have earned the melancholy distinction of being in debt. Where can you find happiness and freedom from debt? Through a debt elimination program, of course! Watch what happens to the rest of your life when you put a serious effort into your plight to eliminate credit card debt. Lo and behold, the time is ripe to eliminate credit card debts.
Debt Elimination Program Options
If you need a debt elimination program, you'll have to meet with a debt management professional first to determine which debt elimination is right for your fiscal situation because there are so many options. Here's a brief list of different debt elimination programs:
- Debt Consolidation - One of the two debt elimination programs that involves negotiation to get your unsecured debt balances and interest rates lowered. Then the new, lower balances are combined and you make one monthly payment to the debt consolidation company, which they distribute among your creditors. Because of the reductions, you can become debt free in about five years.
- Debt Consolidation Loan - A program that involves a loan being made to you to pay off your unsecured debts. You pay off your unsecured debts immediately, but you still have the loan to pay back. The benefit is that the interest rate on the loan is so much lower (generally half of what you're paying now) and you can have total debt elimination in five years or less.
- Debt Consolidation Mortgage - A program that allows you to borrow from the equity in your house to pay off your unsecured debts. Your payment is combined with your mortgage, and you get the same interest rate as your mortgage. In some cases, the interest is even tax-deductible (check with your tax advisor to see if this will work for your tax situation).
- Debt Settlement - The other debt elimination program that relies on negotiation to get you reductions so you pay back your debt at 30-50 cents on the dollar. The caveat is that you have to pay it off all at once. (Some companies will give you one to three years to pay it back though.)
