Comments on: I recently got a $2,500 bonus at work. Should I use it to pay down debt or spend it on a holiday?

I would split it….put like $1,000 towards the debt (the sooner its paid off the better) and then treat yourself to a short vacation.

if it were me I would pay down a little of the debt and then take a vacation…we all need to take them when we can and with your bonus you are able to afford it…have a blast!!!

Pay down your debt. You vacation will be gone in a week but your debt will follow you around for years. And the longer it takes for you to pay off the debt, the more in interest you’ll have to pay and the bigger the debt gets.

pay your debt down. i once was in big trouble with my credit cards and my company had a sales contest with a rather large first prize. i knew i had to win it so i could pay down my debt (and i did). it got me out of hot water

And the responsible answer is and I’m sure you already know what it is………….pay your debt…………….Seriously…pay the debt, save up for the holiday you want to take and you’ll enjoy it much more…..wouldn’t you worry the debt will be there when you get home???
