    The problem is, many people who consolidate credit card loans into personal loans end up filling the credit cards again. Now you have double the trouble.

    I took a loan out for debt consolidation and honestly it one of the best things I did. But I get what Dave is saying and I do agree. Basically yes, taking out a personal loan is not a bad idea. Especially if you will have a better interest rate and save some money. However they key is just to make sure you are smart about it. have the mentality that you still have a lot of debt. Basically have discipline.

    I feel like dave has missed a big point on why consolidation is great. Consolidation gives you a structured payment plan, you HAVE to make that payment (most banks direct debit it), where as credit is whenever you want to pay it. The number one rule is cancelling your credit card if you consolidate so you cant use it.
    The other pro is you now have a fixed payment on a fixed term, so if you live by budgeting its a lot easier to say i need to budget this fixed amount every month than "hmm maybe ill pay this amount off this month". So if you dont have the mindset to pay your credit off, the consolidation is actually great, because you never have to think about it.

  • @KrystalToddCPA
    @KrystalToddCPA Před 4 lety +131

    The average credit card rate is 17% so it would not only reduce the amount that has to be paid back but if they still maintain the same payment or make a higher payment it will also reduce the amount of time it will take to pay off which to me is a good move. Just don't turn around and start spending money on the credit card.

  • @3DPT
    @3DPT Před 4 lety +42

    Consolidation is good because it cleans up the logistics of paying only one company, and a lower interest rate slows (not stops) the bleeding. I've heard to many people though try to consolidate themselves out of debt without addressing the base issue they are spending addicts. It's fine that save as long as you make real progress on the debt load.

    The sad thing is, saving $1000 on a $10,000 debt would be incredible, but the mentality that created that $10,000 in debt will view that $1000 in savings as a reason to spend another $2000!

      True ... and paying it slower since you have a lower interest and might even take twice as long ... it’s the mental part of I had 17% and I need to pay faster than I have 5 % now so I don’t see need to pay faster. If smart it can be done but you can be like me who i have been listening to Dave and I thought I was smart holding on to credit cards only till I had emergency and used it and now I am back to paying credit card debt .

      Actually, despite the 2 replies that were rude, I have seen and even had a friend do this. They transfer their debt to a personal loan, then they rebuild their debt on their credit card. So instead of just credit card debt, they now have credit card and a personal loan. I used to work in a bank - it’s quite common for this occur. As a lot of people seem to miss the biggest point Dave makes - the secret sauce is the person to change their behaviour. Let’s face it - it’s hard to change, whether it’s finances, health, attitude, studying and so fourth. I agree with your comment as I seen it in action.

    I had credit card debt from medical bills and my paramedic school tuition. I was paying around $200 a month in interest @ 22%. A personal loan at 8% through my credit union was an awesome decision. I have an end in sight, I pay about $50 a month in interest therefore paying it down faster. I closed out the credit card. Sure it would have been smarter to not have credit card debt but I see no problem with paying less to a bank in interest.

      True, but people who are in serious credit card debt may not qualify for a zero interest card. Even if they did it may not be able to carry a significant enough of a balance to be worthwhile.

    The “bottom 94%” would benefit from a net gain of Freedom Divided minus the “Value Added Tax”. The “top 6%” would benefit from living in a more equitable society. The “top 6%” have family members, friends and colleagues that would benefit from the net gain.

      Depends on the situation. If you're credit card interest rate is 24% apr and you can get a loan at 7% apr, you can throw more money at the principal instead of just the interest. Also, a loan isn't revolving credit. That means that if you make your regular payments, it'll all be over after about 3 years (depending on the terms of the loan). If you pay the minimum due on a credit card, you might be paying on it for 15 years before it's gone.

      Moving the debt out of revolving credit is a huge step. Even if the apr is the same (it won't be), the term of the loan determines the maximum time you're stuck paying it. If you have 10,000 on a credit card and you pay the minimum payments, you'll be paying it for 15 years or more. If you move it to a 3 year loan, you'll be paying it for 3 years AT MOST.

      @@jadiecakes3241 that sounds like a good way to make sure you keep your utilization ratio high.. I get the idea of removing the available credit so you don't get tempted to use it and rack up debt again, but.. If I have a $1000 debt, and max limit is $1000, then my utilization is 100%, a terrible place to be. If I pay off $500 of the debt, then my utilization is now 50%, which is much better. However if I call my creditor and have them lower my Max limit by $500, then now my utilization is back up to 100% since I still owe $500 on the debt. High utilization rates will not help bringing any offers that can provide Financial flexibility. Personally I would leave the credit limit where it is and even be happy if it increased. As Dave says in this video, it's all about the discipline to not rack up more debt.
