How To Pay Off 10k In Credit Card Debt | In 12 Months

[@chpppbgs]

I only have $1860 left coming from 16,000

[@nomessnostress]

Good job!

[@AngelLopez-sm5nt]

How long it take

[@sharonjenkins8388]

I paid off my $12,000 in 2 months because the interest were too high and then I use the snowball method for my remaining 15 cards . I only have one card left which is going to be paid of by the end of this month . I will be debt free . Thank you Lord 😊

[@tamikamckoy2951]

Is there an example video you can share?

[@sharonjenkins8388]

@traybern I use the Dave Ramsey snowball method and now I am debt free in 2 years .I was $52,000 in debt .It really works .

[@Manihsi]

"What was your income at the time that enabled you to pay it off in just 2 months?"

Can you explain it?

15…? That’s crazy lol. Good for you though

I was with you until you said you closed your credit card accounts. Closing accounts HURTS your credit and takes even longer to build it back up than just leaving the accounts open and cutting the cards up. Credit is about understanding how to manage it. You can get debt free using credit if you do it right. It's about discipline. Instead of telling folks close their accounts, say "I chose to close my accounts because I'm not disciplined enough to manage it." Folks go into credit card debt because they don't truly understand credit and that is unfortunate because credit can definitely help you more than hurt you when you use it correctly.

[@dmeyer1227]

Hurts your credit after 10 years. Closing a card in good standings doesn't hurt much at all.

[@slimbae926]

Coming in from a 150k, finally eliminated it down to just credit cards and loans. Here we go!

[@bdubb5390]

Nah..

[@sojourneroftheland]

Totally agree, the snowball method feels like youre getting somewhere, which to me is more important. Eventually I just switched out to putting everything on one LOC. I can see it all in one place. I drew a "thermometer" with the original debt at the bottom and zero at the top...so when my thermometer is fully red I have hit my debt reduction goal. Half way up the thermometer! The videos are great. Most people have heard a message like yours at least once. I believe its the repetition that helps people to stay consistent. Thank you for the continuous uploads👍🏽

[@carolinag8943]

I hve a plan by the end of the year to be half way out of debt going to hve to get my partner on board to make it into our goal bc I can see he hates the payments but he’s always lived on the mindset that you need debt to live a successful life. I miss when we weren’t stressed and had our little 1999 cars cash and actually had extra money to leave in our bank accounts 😢

[@bran9730]

I owe a decent amount , too embarrassed to say, but I'm going to sell my stuff. I love selling things! Going to use the snowball method. I will need about 2 years. Thank you for sharing, so doable!

[@AnnaAtl]

Me too. I have alot of clothing that is beautiful but doesn't fit and I'd rather be debt free. I have 11k in credit card debt plus about 16k in student loans.

[@klt3065]

I am not understanding how these content creators who promote financial tips are suggesting to live in a home that cost 25-33% percentage of their monthly income. Has anyone looked at the true cost of rent these days. Without living in a war zone hood and especially since Covid, the cost of renting as become extremely expensive. My landlord just hit me with another yearly increase putting emphasis on maintenance costs, property taxes, and overall market trends. I have just started my budget and my goal is to get out of debt and own my own home.

[@realestateplugtv]

this is why owning makes such a huge difference in financial freedom. I highly suggest connecting with a Realtor in your area and asking them about down payment assistance. Here in Charlotte, NC, I've been able to get a client in a home with 100% assistance and they are living in a home that is right at 30% of their income

Hi thank you for the video. I’m currently in debt by 12000. I had to have some pretty intense dental surgery and a few dental implants, I am desperately trying to keep my head above water & pay this debt off quickly. I have made some mistakes in my time but I wish I had the knowledge I have now when I was younger. Thanks again

[@stevenkellerman2240]

I use the snowball method. I’m currently in a debt management plan that will have the majority of my debt paid off in 48 months. I do have 23k in current debt that I plan to have paid off in 18months or sooner.

[@kendregab7328]

I owe a bit over 30k in credit card debt. I plan on using snowball method. I estimate it will take me about 2 years or so to pay it all off. I have a car loan of 13k left but the APR is low at 4.5%. I almost have enough to pay off my smallest credit card of 4.5k. The highest is 17.5 k. I have 3 credit cards. I'm also trying to save for a wedding in a few years so I'm dividing my money between making a 1k emergency fund( almost fully funded), pay down debt and saving for wedding. We don't want to take out a loan for wedding so we're willing to wait and save more. If anyone can send me some motivation I'd really appreciate that right now. Cheers to anyone pay down debt! We can do this 💪 🙌 🤗

You can also combine the two methods for your convenience. Luckily I'm debt free!!!!

[@justinguarino201]

9:45 That sounds like a bad idea. Closing out a single credit card let alone multiple is going to cause your credit score to tank… I would just say to cut the cards and remove them from your Apple Pay/Google pay and just don’t use the cards (and keep maybe 1 for benefit and to still build your credit).

How about not getting into consumer debt in the first place? People need to address the source of the issue: why are they willing to spend money they don't have to purchase things they don't need and has no value. There is a psychological issue that needs to be addressed.

[@vanflowers6829]

I'm currently in the process of trying to get rid of my credit card debt and build up my savings. Which one should I give more attention to?

[@jonsmith9728]

throw some cash to the side for emergencies, then have at that debt

[@cheriebenjamin0315]

Save at least $1000-2000 for an emergency. $1000 should be your minimum no matter what. Depending where you live (like say NY or CA), having $2000 saved is a better bet.

[@cheriebenjamin0315]

You can do both if it won’t overwhelm you. Focus on one card to put any extra in addition to the minimum that you can to pay it off and roll that down to the next. If you can start with setting aside $25-50 a month at minimum for your emergency fund. If you can do more, great.

[@djames9582]

[@optiklopzzz]

If you closed all your cards wouldn't that bring down your credit score?

Yup but it wouldn't effect your real economical position. Plus you don't need a credit score

See if you can get a lower interest rate and save your rent, and utilities for three months from the 6k then send in some to pay it down and if you can pay over your minimum payment by 100 each month until you pay it off. And if you get extra money send it there too.
