      I've heard Dave say before that the reason he doesn't normally worry about which debt has higher interest is because paying off the smaller debt first gives you traction....then moving on up to paying off the next smallest etc. You see some easier wins first which is encouraging, rather than say taking on a much larger debt first (regardless of interest rate) and it taking a lot longer to see results, especially when you are first starting out to get debt free. That makes good sense to me. But as long as people get out of debt, that's the main thing...whether you decide to take on a high interest rate loan first or not.

    If you are paying smallest to largest and aggressive enough to tackle the problem, then the interest difference in the fast time you act is negligible compared to the psychology. Achieving the first milestone faster occurs when you pay smallest to largest and that reward timing matters more in success of getting out of debt

    I believe Dave says pay the smallest debt first, then you need to add that payment to your next debt, effectively paying more now means you are winning the interest game by applying additional funds to the principal. Just like you would do to pay off your home faster.

    • @kelvinpang438
      @kelvinpang438 Před 2 lety +1

      You cant win the interest game by paying debt smallest to largest, it doesnt matter that you have more cashflow for the next biggest debt after paying the smallest,mathematically paying debt largest interest to smallest will ALWAYS be the FASTEST AS LONG AS YOU STICK THE PLAN so thats how you win at the interest game. You may win in the psychological game with smallest the largest but that doesnt chance the FACT that you DID NOT win the interest game and I believe many people are psychologically strong enough to do by interest instead of amount. Not everyone,but many. Dave Ramsey's baby step is NOT for everyone, its just a good guideline to follow but you can tweak it as long as you are DETERMINED to get out of debt and that is what REALLY MATTERS.

      @@kelvinpang438 there's no "winning the interest game." The borrower has already lost. An emotionless robot should pay off debt by by highest interest rate, but the emotionless robot wouldn't be in debt in the first place. People who find themselves in more debt than they intended did not get that way by carefully calculating the interest rates and fees. The data show you will pay off debt faster smallest debt to largest. That effectively does mean paying less interest.

Yes,usually the debt snowball would be better but there definitely is a minority who can pay off debt faster using the avalanche so blanket statements like the debt snowball is better than the debt avalanche for EVERYONE with debt,which is dave's view,is just factually false. Yes,it is better for the majority of people but not all.
