Do You Have Excessive Credit Card Debt?

By Davis Z. Samsun II


"I'm in debt up to my eyeballs" is something more and more people are saying these days. Bankruptcy is one of the leading financial woes in America, and the recessive economy, poor job market, and the rocky credit system of today isn't helping things. In fact, the worse things get the more people use their charge cards to avoid paying for cash. This creates a bad debt stream in anyone's life that does this.

Bankruptcy can lead to foreclosure on one's home, loss of one's property, and complete financial ruin. Many people think bankruptcy is a way out, but the truth is, it isn't a way out, but a way to ruin. When your cash runs out because of bad debt, it is very important that you find companies what you can erase your debts.

You could spend a lifetime trying to save money but if you have a charge card you could spend nearly everything that you work for a month and you can spend the rest of your life paying for it because of extra and hidden fees that are attached to every charge card out there.

The reason for all of this can be tracked almost entirely down to credit card debt. It is easy to get messed up with credit cards, and many of them have interest rates that are ridiculous. You can wind up paying four times the amount of your debt in interest alone, and may Americans don't find this out until it's too late. For example, it can take forty years to pay off $10,000, and cost an additional $40,000 in interest. The phrase highway robbery comes to mind, doesn't it?

To avoid this grisly fate, all one needs to do is learn their rights, and find an attorney who can help them. On the internet, there is information about non-profit (that means no cost to you) services to consolidate your debt, and reduce it by as much as 50%. What banks and creditors won't tell you is, there are laws to protect you from their extortion, limiting the interest and monthly rates they can charge you.

There are many nonprofit organizations that have been set up to help you the consumer. This means they can help you get free information on how you can erase your credit card debt and also how you can avoid getting into the situation ever again in your lifetime.

So if you have debt that you are no longer able to pay it is important to find out exactly what your rights are so you can get your debts erased. Remember, staying in debt is a choice and now to have legal rights as a consumer there's no reason why you should have to worry about making your payments each and every month when there is a legal way out. Nonprofit debt consolidation firms can help you legally and ethically erase quite a bit the debt you owe
