Is credit card debt settlement relief now one of your New Year’s resolutions?
You had a great time over the holidays and everyone loved their gifts. You even bought a few goodies for yourself. After all, there’s nothing wrong with a little self-indulgence, is there? How did you feel when you opened your credit card statement? How long did it take you to start breathing again? Now, can you pay your credit card bills, or are you in need of a credit card debt settlement program?
Budgeting will also be part of a credit card debt settlement
If you’re like most Canadians, you’re already dealing with an enormous debt load and you don’t have anything put aside for a rainy day. You may already be living paycheque to paycheque. The Canadian dollar is very low which means that your grocery bills are higher. And there will be other items affected by the low dollar as well. If you’ve planned a vacation outside of Canada, I hope you’ve budgeted for the low dollar. In fact, are you budgeting at all? As we’ve stressed:
A Balanced Budget is to Financial Health What a Balanced Diet is to Physical Health – Part 1

It seemed like a good idea to use the credit cards, but now I need credit card debt settlement
Using credit cards may seem like a good idea because they’re convenient and you probably get some type of reward for using them. However, if you’re not paying your bill in full each month, the high interest rates could be your financial undoing. It’s easy to get stuck in the trap of high interest debt and then taking out more high interest debt to pay off the high interest debt. Alternatively, you could face up to the fact that you will never be able to pay off your credit cards, and rather than taking on more debt you will be unable to repay, consider a credit card debt settlement program.
