Trying to calculate the cost of paying off credit card debt can sometimes be as complex as x + 2y=z.
In most algebra equations there’s usually a number which is already given that makes the problem easier to solve. However, when it comes to compound interest and credit card debt, life’s variables like everyday family needs, car repairs and monthly bills, the math equation is easily confused; going unsolved.
I suggest for many to start by removing the credit cards from the equation; this begins to make the problem easier to solve. By starting with the removal of credit cards first, it eliminates a ton of variables such as minimum monthly payments, annual percentage rates, finance charges and late fees just to name a few! What is left in the equation comes down to time and money; which changes the complex equation to a simple basic math problem like 1-1=0. If you agree that time equals money, then by saving time to become debt free, it will always save money- no matter what!
As you can see once there’s a simple math problem to solve it becomes easier to find the solution. It may be painful at first; maybe you’re stuck watching local TV instead of cable and eating at home instead of dining out. However, a small sacrifice like letting go of credit to become debt free is what needs to be done. All of us at one point in our life have found it hard to save time and money, but with the right plan of attack, a support team of experts, plus your commitment to controlling the variables, you will see the change you want to see in your debt with less time, for less money!
