    Are you struggling to pay off debt and wondering which strategy to use?
    In this video, we'll break down two popular debt repayment methods: the Debt Snowball and the Debt Avalanche. Discover the major differences between them and find out which one might be best for your financial journey!
    Debt Snowball Method:
    Focuses on paying off debts starting with the smallest outstanding loan balance first.
    This is a psychological approach, designed to give you quick wins to keep you motivated.
    Debt Avalanche Method:
    Focuses on paying off debts starting with the highest interest rates first.
    This is a math-focused approach, aiming to save you the most money in interest over time.
    Why These Methods Work
    Debt Avalanche:
    By targeting the highest APR, you minimize the total interest paid over time.
    This method might take longer to see results since it doesn't consider the loan balance, just the interest rate.
    Debt Snowball:
    By eliminating smaller debts first, you gain a sense of accomplishment that keeps you motivated.
    This method helps build momentum, making it easier to stay committed to your debt repayment plan.

    5 years ago at 49 years of age my wife and I up-sized our home and bought into a much nicer area because rates were super low. Our rate is only 2.875% on a 15 year note. But here's the thing...I don't want to be paying on a mortgage into my mid-60s. I plan to ditch work entirely at 60. So while it makes zero financial sense, we've been paying down the mortgage like crazy from day 1. We will be entirely mortgage free in December of this year.

    I waited at a red light today, next to a bus with an ad on it for people who needed help with getting out of debt. And it hit me: I have zero debt! I owe nothing to anyone! Oh, what a feeling, what a rush (as that song says). Some people may think this is nuts, but let me tell you, it is a feeling as good as the paid off mortgage. And having large stocks of food allows you to replace those necessities only when they are on sale, so you keep saving money long term. I’m so glad I took my Investment journey serious and with my financial advisor, I have been to achieve my goals.

    I lost over $70k when everything started to tank. Not because I was in an exchange that went belly up. I was just stupid to hold and because that's what everyone said. I'm still responsible. It just taught me to be a better investor now that I understand more of what could go wrong. It took me over two years of being in the market, I'm really grateful I found one source to recover my money, at least $10k profits weekly. Thanks Natalie Rose Strayer

    I used a combination of both methods when paying off my debt. I first used snowball to wipe out the smaller debts, then I switched to Avalanche tackling the highest APR on the remaining ones. Some may even want to pay them off according to what is more emotionally taxing on them. Example: If you owe a family member money and this is really bothering you.

      Typically home payment cap at 25%. Total home (utilities, improvements/maintenance) is suggested no more than 40%. But it is personal, so if say you work from home, therefore have little use for a car, so long as you keep that car cost low, you can afford more home.

      Emergencies happen, family happens, inflation happens, shit happens, etc that can put a dent in the best laid plans. Not only that, some people don't earn enough to meet basic needs so there is no savings. Irresponsibility is not the only reason why people are broke and struggling.
      But I agree with the gist of what you said, financial education is not an option but a requirement especially with the inflation or whatever they want to call it these days.

    Unless there are so many lines of credit it's unwieldy, I'd go avalanche. However, the psychology is a good thought.
