Reducing Your Debt When Bill At A Time

by Carlos McClinket on July 20, 2010

It happens to all of us. We wake up one day and find that we are drowning in debt. It would be nice if there were a way to reduce our debt quickly. Here is an idea, which if done right, can reduce your debt quickly. This idea is going to take some discipline and self control. But if you put your mind to it I have no doubt that you can succeed.

The first thing you will need to do is create some extra income. It does not matter how much it is. Any amount will greatly help your cause. It can be as much as an extra twenty dollars a week. There are a lot of things you can do to make an extra twenty a week. You can cut grass, rake yards, or even collect can. Be creative.

You will need to get your bills in order. You will want organize them from the lowest to the highest. This way it will not take long to pay the small bills off and you will have encouragement to move on to the next bill. You would get discouraged trying to pay the highest bills off first.

Keep making the same payments every month on your bills. Use the extra money to increase the payment on the starter bill. After you have paid it take all the money from that bill and add it to the next bill on the list. Soon you will start to see a very noticeable decrease in your debt. The hardest part of the plan will be to start it.

As soon as you pay one bill off take the money that you would pay on that bill and add it to the payment of the next bill. This will increase the payment on the next bill paying it off quicker. Once that bill is paid off it will free up money for the next bill in line.

Now this plan is going to take discipline. If you take your extra money and spend it on something else you will mess your whole system up. You have to make sure that all the money you save by paying bills off is going to the next highest bills,

You do not have to put all the extra money you have towards bills to make this work. If you can get to a point where you are at least doubling the payment of your next bill you will pay your bills off twice as fast. If you can create a system to where you are paying twice the amount of the bill you will see some amazing results. Anything over that can be use to celebrate your freedom from debt.

This is just a simple idea to help pay some bills faster than you are. This is nothing but simple mathematics. Double your payment and clear the bill faster. Debt is nothing to be ashamed of. We all have our share but there is a time that you have to stand up and start taking it down. All you have to do is make a decision and stick to it.
