Need help digging out of debt? Here are three smart debt relief moves to make this October.
While inflation has steadily declined over the last year and, now, interest rates have started to be reduced, the economic burdens millions of Americans have felt in recent years are still lingering. The average American owes approximately $8,000 in credit card debt currently and, overall, the total credit card debt nationwide now sits at approximately $1.4 trillion. That's a lot of money to pay back and it won't be repaid overnight, either.
Stop waitingChoosing the right debt relief option for your unique situation is just one step. The rest, however, will take time to implement and it could be months, if not years, to accomplish your goal. Credit card debt forgiveness, for example, can take two to four years to complete and even then you won't have your full debt forgiven . Waiting around, then, for the perfect relief option or for interest rates to fall could be detrimental to your financial well-being.
