The Avalance Method Of Eliminating Debt
Mathematically you will pay the least amount of money to eliminate your debt by using the avalanche method to eliminate your debt. When using the avalanche method, while paying the minimum on each credit card, you pay other available money towards eliminating the debt on the card that is charging the greatest interest rate first. Once you pay that off, you take the payment amount you had been paying towards the highest debt card, add that to the minimum payment of the next highest interest rate card, and continue until you get rid of all your credit card debt.
The Snowball Method Of Eliminating Debt
When following the snowball method to get rid of credit card debt while paying the minimum payment for each card, you put the extra money towards paying off the smallest balance first. After paying off the smallest balance, you take the extra money allocated each month to the card initially paid off, add that amount towards the next smallest, and continue until you eliminate all the credit card debt.
Personal Finances Are Personal
There is no right or wrong decision concerning choosing the avalanche or snowball method to eliminate your credit card debt.
Your finances are personal. You should always make the best-informed decision whenever your finances are involved.
Indeed, do not let analysis paralysis get in the way of getting rid of your credit card debt because it costs you money, which compounds even more over time.
