New Year’s Resolution
2008 | Money
New year time. How did that go by so fast? The holidays seemed to zip by the quickest but that’s probably because I don’t really celebrate them all that much, and what I did celebrate was cheap because I’m pretty poor and I’ve got to live right at my means or beneath them, so I rarely ever find myself in any debt at all but I know a lot of people who are deeply in debt, some from living extravagantly but most from simple things like rent, hospital bills, groceries, etc. and this is the time of year it hurts them the most.
During the holidays, if you’re already in debt, really the only way to participate in gift giving is to sink further into debt or put off paying debt back, and that’s a dangerous business. Too much debt can ruin your life, even if that debt isn’t your fault. You still owe it and it can really haunt you. Creditors calling your home, maybe even your work. Having to work longer, more hours, maybe even extra jobs just to make ends meet and still pay your minimum. Plus a low credit score can keep you from getting everything from a house loan to a job. I didn’t realize until this year that poor credit can keep you from getting a job, which makes it like a vicious cycle and if I were a Marxist I’d see an evil pattern of dirty pool here.
One way to keep from sinking further into debt is to seek debt management services from a company like ClearDebt. With their help you can get your debt consolidated into one, easy to manage monthly payment that may be reduced as much as 65%, plus they’ll handle your creditors for you and negotiate on your behalf. New year. Good time to think about starting fresh, don’t you think?
