Types of Debt Solutions

  1. Debt Consolidation: It lowers your interest rate and waives off your late charge fees by combining your debts into a single payment. For more details, read benefits of debt consolidation
  2. Debt settlement: In this process, only a part of total debt is paid to the creditor. A deal is settled with the creditor for a lump sum amount (which is collected under a trust account by the law firms/debt settlement companies). Learn step by step process of settling your debt.
  3. Bankruptcy: Bankruptcy as a debt solution is considered as the last resort as its outcome is long lasting as well as far reaching. There are 2 common types of bankruptcy namely chapter 7 and chapter 13. You should avoid bankruptcy.
  4. Self Repayment plan: You can pay off your debts on your own by developing a repayment plan on your own. A successful implementation of the plan would require:
    • Self discipline and self restraint
    • Knowledge of different debt reduction techniques
    • A feasible budget that includes funds for emergencies and sudden expenses
  5. Ostrich method: It says, "Ignore debt for long and it will vanish". This is not recommended and is not applicable for everyone, just a small group of people. Since this is not applicable for most of us we are not describing it here.
