Book Description
Today, more people than ever before are struggling to stay financially afloat. Our debt loads are higher than they've ever been, coming at a time when wages seem to be stagnating and the price of everything seems to keep going up. Being in debt can put immense pressure and stress on a family and for many, it can feel like there is no proverbial light at the end of the tunnel when it comes to getting out of debt. However, with The Smart & Easy Guide To Debt Relief: How to Live Debt Free with These Credit Score Repair Tips, Debt Repair Advice, Debt Settlement Management & Credit Counseling Help, we are provided a down-to-earth and realistic guide for how to regain control of our finances and begin to dig our way out of debt. It is entirely possible, with the right information and a good plan, to work down your debt and become debt free in a relatively short period of time. The guide discusses that the first step to becoming debt free is to take a holistic and clear assessment on all of your debts. This means creating a list of all your debts, who they are owed to and the terms of the debt such as interest rate and so on. You cannot come up with a plan of action until you know what all you are facing. This is also the time to obtain a credit report. You can obtain your credit report from the following agencies: Experian Equifax TransUnion Once you have your credit report, go through it thoroughly to ensure that everything on it is accurate. If something is inaccurate, you will need to contact the appropriate agency to get the issue fixed. After you have all your debts laid out, you need to get an idea of how much money you have and where it goes and use this to create a budget. The guide recommends creating a detailed spreadsheet of your spending to include even small expenses such as: Eating out budget Entertainment budget Magazines or other incidentals These should be tracked in addition to the big expenses like the mortgage and bills. When you begin to write all this down, you can already often see areas in which you can reduce or improve your spending habits. The savings that can be gleaned here can be put towards reducing and eliminating your debt. To create a budget for repaying your debts, you need to be realistic about what you can do. Take into account your earnings, vital expenses and any areas in which you could reduce expenses so as to put the savings towards debt repayment. You can use this figure to determine the amount of time it should feasibly take you to get out of debt. Once you have all this information, you can put a time-specific budget together that defines exactly how and when you are going to repay your debt. The guide recommends focusing on the debts with the least favorable terms (high interest rates, late payment fees, etc) first, as this will cost less money in the long run. For those with very serious debts or complicated debts, credit counseling our debt settlement may be a good option. The guide discusses what these options mean and who they are best suited for. Debt creates a huge strain and tons of stress on families and today, more than ever before, more and more families are finding themselves mired in debt they feel they have no hope of managing. With The Smart & Easy Guide To Debt Relief: How to Live Debt Free with These Credit Score Repair Tips, Debt Repair Advice, Debt Settlement Management & Credit Counseling Help, we are given the tools we need to take stock of our financial situation. Once we have done this, the guide shows us how to create a reasonable and realistic budget and plan of action that will culminate in the elimination of our debts and allow us the joys of being debt free.

Most people wind up under credit card debts because they are unable to comprehend the idea behind credit cards. They give in to impulses and slack on their payments, getting hit with late payment charges and heavy interest. The debt keeps piling until it becomes crushing, and the debtors find themselves unable to repay. Soon, people are looking for more credit cards or personal loans to pay the debts on their existing credit cards and keep the cycle going, but this cycle is more like a downward spiral, which gets them under heavy debt. Credit card debts are not uncommon in our society, though, and anyone who is lagging behind on payments should not feel ashamed to ask for legitimate help. The problem is (was) that very little impartial and genuine advice is available for people who are either already under debt or using the credit cards wrongly. All products rely on glitzy advertising to stir impulses, and credit card comes in handy when it's time to pay. There's no card that comes with a "use prudently" warning printed on its front side.

Get rid of your debt without giving up your life No one wants to be in debt. But life happens and if you’ve got debt, life has happened to you. Whether you have a rolling balance of $2,000 on your credit card or an $80,000 line of credit you are positive you will carry to your grave, debt can be a huge cause of stress—affecting both your emotional and financial wellness. After working with thousands of financial planning clients, Shannon Lee Simmons knows that your only way out of the debt cycle is to truly understand all of your spending triggers so you can shut them down for good. In Living Debt-Free, she shows you that it is possible to have a life and pay down debt at the same time. In fact, that’s the only way your debt plan will work.

In Living Debt-Free, Simmons focuses on creating a debt repayment plan that will motivate you for a long time, rather than an unrealistic one that’s strictly about paying the least amount of interest charges. (Collective gasp—how dare she!?) Listen, everyone knows that paying interest on debt is bad and to be avoided as much as possible, but human beings are complex. Life is complex. Debt is complex. There cannot be a one-size-fits-all plan, so Living Debt-Free will help you build your plan—the one that will help you finally put the debt behind you, start fresh and feel good about your money again.

"Christine Luken does a wonderful job taking complex financial topics and making them easy to understand. Reading Money is Emotional is like having a conversation with a knowledgeable friend." -Robert Pagliarini, CFP, EA, Author of The Sudden Wealth Solution _______________ If money is emotional, then why do we persist in trying to manage our personal finances logically? We already know what it takes to become financially healthy: spend less than we make, pay down our debt, and save more money. Money management books, tools, and techniques abound, yet most of us don't utilize them. Maybe you've adopted the practice of ignoring money problems until they are barreling down on you like a tidal wave, as I once did. I know what it feels like to be drowning financially. I'd like to propose a better alternative, one that doesn't require you to eat beans and rice or to spend hours updating budget spreadsheets. My approach to personal finance is called "Mindful Money Management." It is unique in that it harnesses the power of your emotions, so they can propel you forward like a rocket booster towards your Preferred Financial Destination. Yes, money is emotional, but you can prevent your heart from hijacking your wallet. Let me show you how.
