You are right in a way that filing bankruptcy should be your last option.
I am also agree with the fact that taking a new credit card or several debts to manage your current financial situation should be avoided at any cost.

Thanks for this article.

A lot of people use a second charge loan to consolidate credit card debt, but as you say it can be a double edged sword. People clear the debt get a lower payment but dont cut up the cards. Two years later they are back in the same position with more debtlooking for another secured loan to consolidate more credit card debt.

SO true. I speak to debt counselors all the time and they constantly speak of how consumers put themselves in bad situations. Thanks for a wonderful article!

Excellent article. Excellently written. As you said filing bankruptcy should be your final option and unsecured credit card debt consolidation requires a solid plan. Thanks for this informative article.

Both parties are at fault when it comes to debt consolidation in my opinion. Having first hand experience it was a little bit better cobsolidating my debts, but sure can do it without.

Some people should have their cards torn up, then frozen, then locked up in a bank 100 miles away. Credit is so easy to get that people just can not help themselves. They are like kids that eat too much candy. Maybe they should teach fiscal responsibility in schools!

I agree debt consolidation isn’t for everyone. But it’s an option worth considering for anybody with serious debt problems.

At some point we all need to be held accountable for our own actions. We need to learn from our mistakes, pick up the pieces and move on. After we fix our debt we need to use self control and stop putting ourselves into debt. We need to stop blaming others and look in the mirror. It’s just like dieting,take responsibility and learn to live in moderation. So many people are overweight, just like our debt.

I recently took a phone call from someone deeply in debt who was looking for a company to loan her money to pay off her debts. Some people will never be able to understand how to help themselves. But I think most people are grateful when they find a legitimate solution to help them pay off what they owe.

Self control is the only answer for people like this. You can show them hoe to get out of debt (education) just like you can take a horse to water but you can’t make it drink.

I know each individual case is different, but what are the true benefits of consolidation over, say, settlement or even a bankruptcy? I wonder if there is a white paper out there with facts and figures about what method is best in a macroeconomic sense.

Your absolutly right suze. This was my problem exactly. To me, buying “stuff” was almost a disease like alcholism. I quit smoking and the urge to buy is almost as bad. People have a need to buy, buy, buy and they need intervention. Overspending is a constant challenge because if you really want something you kid yourself in to thinking you have to have it now. The problem is “self control” can’t be taught.

Bankruptcy is financial tool. It will save the debtor a massive sum of money & help them become debt free quickly. But Avoiding the longer term negative consequences of bankruptcy.

I really enjoyed what you wrote. Being in massive amounts of debt is just too much for most people to handle. I work with a lot of people who have the worst time dealing with their debts. Its pretty tough to see.

I agree wholeheartedly, consolidation using an unsecured card isn’t for everyone. You have to have a plan and you have to have realistic expectations. In the end, one of the hardest things for people to do is stop charging. That needs to be rule number one for this all to work.
