Ready to kick debt to the curb? We’ve got your back! Let’s break down the steps to make this the year you say goodbye to those money worries.
List Your Debts:
First things first, let’s face those debts. Make a list of everything you owe, like credit cards, loans, or anything else. Knowing what you’re dealing with is step one to taking control.
Figure Out What You Can Pay:

Tackling Multiple Debts:
Snowball Method for Debts Under £5,000: Got a bunch of debts under £5,000? Start with the smallest one. Pay it off first, then use that momentum to tackle the next one. It’s like a snowball getting bigger as it rolls downhill!
Debt Avalanche for Debts Over £5,000: If your debts are bigger (over £5,000), focus on the ones with the highest interest rates first. This way, you pay less overall interest and speed up your journey to debt-free living.
Debt Consolidation for Debts Over £10,000: Big debts? Consider bringing them together into one manageable loan or plan. It simplifies things, and you might get a lower interest rate.
